Gets the magnitude (or absolute value) of a complex number.

public:
 property double Magnitude { double get(); };
public double Magnitude { get; }
member this.Magnitude : double
Public ReadOnly Property Magnitude As Double

Property Value

Double

The magnitude of the current instance.

Examples

The following example calculates the absolute value of a complex number and demonstrates that it is equivalent to the value of the Magnitude property.

using System;
using System.Numerics;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Complex complex1 = new Complex(2.0, 3.0);
      Console.WriteLine("|{0}| = {1:N2}", complex1, Complex.Abs(complex1));
      Console.WriteLine("Equal to Magnitude: {0}",
                        Complex.Abs(complex1).Equals(complex1.Magnitude));
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//       |(2, 3)| = 3.61
//       Equal to Magnitude: True

open System.Numerics

let complex1 = Complex(2., 3.)
printfn $"|{complex1}| = {Complex.Abs complex1:N2}"
printfn $"Equal to Magnitude: {Complex.Abs(complex1).Equals complex1.Magnitude}"
// The example displays the following output:
//       |(2, 3)| = 3.61
//       Equal to Magnitude: True

Remarks

The Magnitude property is equivalent to the absolute value of a complex number. It specifies the distance from the origin (the intersection of the x-axis and the y-axis in the Cartesian coordinate system) to the two-dimensional point represented by a complex number. The absolute value is calculated as follows:

$| a + bi | = \sqrt{a \times a + b \times b}$

If the calculation of the absolute value results in an overflow, this property returns either Double.PositiveInfinity or Double.NegativeInfinity.

The Magnitude and the Phase properties define the position of a point that represents a complex number in the polar coordinate system.

You can instantiate a complex number based on its polar coordinates instead of its Cartesian coordinates by calling the FromPolarCoordinates method.
