Module Complex
: sig end
 
 
Complex numbers.
 
This module provides arithmetic operations on complex numbers. Complex numbers are represented by their real and imaginary parts (cartesian representation). Each part is represented by a double-precision floating-point number (type float ).
 
 
 
 
 
 
type t = {
re : float ;
im : float ;
}
 
 
The type of complex numbers. re is the real part and im the imaginary part.
 
 
 
 
val zero : t
 
The complex number 0 .
 
 
 
 
val one : t
 
The complex number 1 .
 
 
 
 
val i : t
 
The complex number i .
 
 
 
 
val neg : t -> t
 
Unary negation.
 
 
 
 
val conj : t -> t
 
Conjugate: given the complex x + i.y , returns x - i.y .
 
 
 
 
val add : t -> t -> t
 
Addition
 
 
 
 
val sub : t -> t -> t
 
Subtraction
 
 
 
 
val mul : t -> t -> t
 
Multiplication
 
 
 
 
val inv : t -> t
 
Multiplicative inverse ( 1/z ).
 
 
 
 
val div : t -> t -> t
 
Division
 
 
 
 
val sqrt : t -> t
 
Square root. The result x + i.y is such that x > 0 or x = 0 and y >= 0 . This function has a discontinuity along the negative real axis.
 
 
 
 
val norm2 : t -> float
 
Norm squared: given x + i.y , returns x^2 + y^2 .
 
 
 
 
val norm : t -> float
 
Norm: given x + i.y , returns sqrt(x^2 + y^2) .
 
 
 
 
val arg : t -> float
 
Argument. The argument of a complex number is the angle in the complex plane between the positive real axis and a line passing through zero and the number. This angle ranges from -pi to pi . This function has a discontinuity along the negative real axis.
 
 
 
 
val polar : float -> float -> t
 
 
polar norm arg returns the complex having norm norm and argument arg .
 
 
 
 
val exp : t -> t
 
Exponentiation. exp z returns e to the z power.
 
 
 
 
val log : t -> t
 
Natural logarithm (in base e ).
 
 
 
 
val pow : t -> t -> t
 
Power function. pow z1 z2 returns z1 to the z2 power.
