abs

Calculates the modulus of a complex number.

template <class Type>
Type abs(const complex<Type>& complexNum);

Parameters

complexNum
The complex number whose modulus is to be determined.

Return Value

The modulus of a complex number.

Remarks

The modulus of a complex number is a measure of the length of the vector representing the complex number. The modulus of a complex number a + bi is the square root of (a² + b²), written |a + bi|. The norm of a complex number a + bi is (a² + b²). The norm of a complex number is the square of its modulus.

arg

Extracts the argument from a complex number.

template <class Type>
Type arg(const complex<Type>& complexNum);

Parameters

complexNum
The complex number whose argument is to be determined.

Return Value

Remarks

The argument is the angle that the complex vector makes with the positive real axis in the complex plane. For a complex number a + bi, the argument is equal to arctan(b/a). The angle has a positive sense when measured in a counterclockwise direction from the positive real axis and a negative sense when measured in a clockwise direction. The principal values are greater than -pi and less than or equal to +pi.

The norm of a complex number.

Remarks

The norm of a complex number a + bi is (a² + b²). The norm of a complex number is the square of its modulus. The modulus of a complex number is a measure of the length of the vector representing the complex number. The modulus of a complex number a + bi is the square root of (a² + b²), written |a + bi|.

tanh

Returns the hyperbolic tangent of a complex number.

template <class Type>
complex<Type> tanh(const complex<Type>& complexNum);

Parameters

complexNum
The complex number whose hyperbolic tangent is being determined.

Return Value

The complex number that is the hyperbolic tangent of the input complex number.

Remarks

Identities defining the complex hyperbolic cotangent:

tanh (z) = sinh (z) / cosh (z) = ( exp (z) - exp (- z) ) / ( exp (z) + exp (- z) )
