IMAGINARY(z)
- is the complex number is in the form .
Description
- This function gives the imaginary coefficient of a complex number.
- Imaginary number is a real number which is multiplied with the imaginary unit , where .
- When imaginary number is get adding to the real number , then it forms a complex number.
- Also when we are squaring the imaginary number , it will give the negative real number .
- For eg . We can use COMPLEX function to convert the real and imaginary coefficients to a complex number.
- A complex number is a imaginary number when the real part is zero.
Examples
- IMAGINARY("2+3i")=3
- IMAGINARY("4-5i")=-5
- IMAGINARY("3j")=3
- IMAGINARY("7")=0
