CComplex Class

CComplex is a class to work with complex numbers with Free Basic. Complex numbers are represented using the type _complex. The real and imaginary part are stored in the members x and y. There is also a flat api version that you can use alone or in combination with this class (see: Complex Numbers Procedures

TYPE _complex
   x AS DOUBLE   ' real part
   y AS DOUBLE   ' imaginary part
END TYPE

Include file: CComplex.inc.

Constructors

Create a new instance of the CComplex class and assigns the values passed to it.

CNthRoot

Returns the kth nth root of a complex number where k = 0, 1, 2, 3,...,n - 1.
De Moivre's formula states that for any complex number x and integer n it holds that
cos(x)+ isin(x))^n = cos(nx) + isin(nx)
where i is the imaginary unit (i2 = -1).
Since z = re^(it) = r * (cos(t) + i sin(t))
where
z = (a, ib)
r = modulus of z
t = argument of z
i = sqrt(-1.0)
we can calculate the nth root of z by the formula:
z^(1/n) = r^(1/n) * (cos(x/n) + i sin(x/n))
by using log division.
