complex numbers functions in C

complex numbers functions in C

[amos eitan]

Hi
I am an electro physics engineer trying my first steps in programming. I am 
trying to program a simple routine for integrating fields (I am using 
gcc-2.95.3). I must use complex numbers and I donÂ’t know the functions, the 
declaration of the variables and how to print a complex number using 
“fprintf” with a complex format. Can anybody help me?
Thanks
Amos

RE: complex numbers functions in C

Amos,

Neither C nor C++ (and hence GCC) natively supports working with complex
numbers.  For that, you will need to use a specialized math library.
While I don't know of any specific ones off the top of my head, I know
that several are available.  A quick search of the Internet would
probably turn up a few choices.

Good luck,
Lyle
