MAKECOMPLEXIMINUSSIMPLE(Imaginary)

• is the imaginary part of the complex number.

## Description

• MAKECOMPLEXIMINUSSIMPLE function represents a complex number using the imaginary coefficient mentioned in the argument. Here the imaginary coefficient is converted to negative value.
• As the argument does not contain real number, the real number coefficient is considered zero.
• A complex number is a combination of a real and an imaginary number.
• A number which is positive or negative, rational or irrational or decimals are called real numbers.
• An Imaginary number is a number that when squring it gives a negative result.
• For e.g. . Because a negative times a negative is positive.
• A complex number is in the form , where and are real numbers and is the imaginary unit. Where
• To mention and , we must use the lower case only
• In a complex number real part is denoted by & imaginary part is denoted by .
• MAKECOMPLEXIMINUSSIMPLE returns the error value, when and are non-numeric.
• should be either or , otherwise it shows error value.
• A Complex number whose real part is zero is said to be purely imaginary.
• A Complex number whose imaginary part is zero is a real number. In that cases we have to assign '0' for that part.
1. =MAKECOMPLEXIMINUSSIMPLE (8) gives
2. =MAKECOMPLEXIMINUSSIMPLE (2,["j"]) gives

## ZOS

• is the imaginary part.

## Examples

1. =MAKECOMPLEXIMINUSSIMPLE(5) = 0-i5
2. =MAKECOMPLEXIMINUSSIMPLE(-5) = 0+i5
3. =MAKECOMPLEXIMINUSSIMPLE(1) = 0-i1
