=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Math::Complex;
+
$z = Math::Complex->make(5, 6);
$t = 4 - 3*i + $z;
$j = cplxe(1, 2*pi/3);
which is also expressed by this formula:
- z = rho * exp(i * theta) = rho * (cos theta + i * sin theta)
+ z = rho * exp(i * theta) = rho * (cos theta + i * sin theta)
In other words, it's the projection of the vector onto the I<x> and I<y>
axes. Mathematicians call I<rho> the I<norm> or I<modulus> and I<theta>
The polar notation (also known as the trigonometric
representation) is much more handy for performing multiplications and
divisions of complex numbers, whilst the cartesian notation is better
-suited for additions and substractions. Real numbers are on the I<x>
-axis, and therefore I<theta> is zero.
+suited for additions and subtractions. Real numbers are on the I<x>
+axis, and therefore I<theta> is zero or I<pi>.
All the common operations that can be performed on a real number have
been defined to work on complex numbers as well, and are merely
the number is within their definition set.
For instance, the C<sqrt> routine which computes the square root of
-its argument is only defined for positive real numbers and yields a
-positive real number (it is an application from B<R+> to B<R+>).
+its argument is only defined for non-negative real numbers and yields a
+non-negative real number (it is an application from B<R+> to B<R+>).
If we allow it to return a complex number, then it can be extended to
negative real numbers to become an application from B<R> to B<C> (the
set of complex numbers):
sqrt(z = [r,t]) = sqrt(r) * exp(i * t/2)
-Indeed, a negative real number can be noted C<[x,pi]>
-(the modulus I<x> is always positive, so C<[x,pi]> is really C<-x>, a
-negative number)
-and the above definition states that
+Indeed, a negative real number can be noted C<[x,pi]> (the modulus
+I<x> is always non-negative, so C<[x,pi]> is really C<-x>, a negative
+number) and the above definition states that
sqrt([x,pi]) = sqrt(x) * exp(i*pi/2) = [sqrt(x),pi/2] = sqrt(x)*i
which is exactly what we had defined for negative real numbers above.
+The C<sqrt> returns only one of the solutions: if you want the both,
+use the C<root> function.
All the common mathematical functions defined on real numbers that
are extended to complex numbers share that same property of working
z1 * z2 = (r1 * r2) * exp(i * (t1 + t2))
z1 / z2 = (r1 / r2) * exp(i * (t1 - t2))
z1 ** z2 = exp(z2 * log z1)
- ~z1 = a - bi
- abs(z1) = r1 = sqrt(a*a + b*b)
- sqrt(z1) = sqrt(r1) * exp(i * t1/2)
- exp(z1) = exp(a) * exp(i * b)
- log(z1) = log(r1) + i*t1
- sin(z1) = 1/2i (exp(i * z1) - exp(-i * z1))

+=head1 ERRORS DUE TO DIVISION BY ZERO OR LOGARITHM OF ZERO
+
+The division (/) and the following functions
-Saying C<use Math::Complex;> exports many mathematical routines in the caller
-environment. This is construed as a feature by the Author, actually... ;-)
+ log ln log10 logn
+ tan sec csc cot
+ atan asec acsc acot
+ tanh sech csch coth
+ atanh asech acsch acoth
-The code is not optimized for speed, although we try to use the cartesian
-form for addition-like operators and the trigonometric form for all
-multiplication-like operators.
+cannot be computed for all arguments because that would mean dividing
+by zero or taking logarithm of zero. These situations cause fatal
+runtime errors looking like this
-The arg() routine does not ensure the angle is within the range [-pi,+pi]
-(a side effect caused by multiplication and division using the trigonometric
-representation).
+ cot(0): Division by zero.
+ (Because in the definition of cot(0), the divisor sin(0) is 0)
+ Died at ...
+
+or
+
+ atanh(-1): Logarithm of zero.
+ Died at...
+
+For the C<csc>, C<cot>, C<asec>, C<acsc>, C<acot>, C<csch>, C<coth>,
+C<asech>, C<acsch>, the argument cannot be C<0> (zero). For the the
+logarithmic functions and the C<atanh>, C<acoth>, the argument cannot
+be C<1> (one). For the C<atanh>, C<acoth>, the argument cannot be
+C<-1> (minus one). For the C<atan>, C<acot>, the argument cannot be
+C<i> (the imaginary unit). For the C<atan>, C<acoth>, the argument
+cannot be C<-i> (the negative imaginary unit). For the C<tan>,
+C<sec>, C<tanh>, the argument cannot be I<pi/2 + k * pi>, where I<k>
+is any integer.
+
+Note that because we are operating on approximations of real numbers,
+these errors can happen when merely `too close' to the singularities
+listed above. For example C<tan(2*atan2(1,1)+1e-15)> will die of
+division by zero.
+
+=head1 ERRORS DUE TO INDIGESTIBLE ARGUMENTS
+
+The C<make> and C<emake> accept both real and complex arguments.
+When they cannot recognize the arguments they will die with error
+messages like the following
+
+ Math::Complex::make: Cannot take real part of ...
+ Math::Complex::make: Cannot take real part of ...
+ Math::Complex::emake: Cannot take rho of ...
+ Math::Complex::emake: Cannot take theta of ...

+=head1 BUGS
+
+Saying C<use Math::Complex;> exports many mathematical routines in the
+caller environment and even overrides some (C<sqrt>, C<log>).
+This is construed as a feature by the Authors, actually... ;-)
All routines expect to be given real or complex numbers. Don't attempt to
use BigFloat, since Perl has currently no rule to disambiguate a '+'
operation (for instance) between two overloaded entities.

+In Cray UNICOS there is some strange numerical instability that results
+in root(), cos(), sin(), cosh(), sinh(), losing accuracy fast. Beware.
+The bug may be in UNICOS math libs, in UNICOS C compiler, in Math::Complex.
+Whatever it is, it does not manifest itself anywhere else where Perl runs.
