4.1 Introduction

Having a basic understanding of preliminary mathematical constructs, you now need to understand how complex numbers are dealt with. Computations involving complex numbers can be found in almost all branches of science and mathematics. All Julia-based numerical computation developers must understand a variety of ways of defining complex numbers and their mathematics to compute efficiently.

The world of complex numbers encompasses important scientific domains. When used for descriptions of reality, they present more enriched pictures of physical phenomena than real numbers. Every ...
