Complex Constructor
Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
Initializes a new instance of the Complex structure using the specified real and imaginary values.
Namespace: System.Numerics
Assembly: System.Numerics (in System.Numerics.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
real As Double, _
imaginary As Double _
)
public Complex(
double real,
double imaginary
)
Parameters
- real
Type: System.Double
The real part of the complex number.
- imaginary
Type: System.Double
The imaginary part of the complex number.
Remarks
The real or imaginary arguments may lose precision if they are data types that require an explicit cast to Double.
Examples
The following example instantiates two complex numbers, and then uses them in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations.
Imports System.Numerics
Module Example
Public Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
Dim complex1 As New Complex(17.34, 12.87)
Dim Complex2 As New Complex(8.76, 5.19)
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} + {1} = {2}", complex1, complex2,
complex1 + complex2) + vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} - {1} = {2}", complex1, complex2,
complex1 - complex2) + vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} * {1} = {2}", complex1, complex2,
complex1 * complex2) + vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} / {1} = {2}", complex1, complex2,
complex1 / complex2) + vbCrLf
End Sub
End Module
