NAME

Math::Complex - complex numbers package

  use Math::Complex;
  $i = new Math::Complex;

Complex numbers declared as

    $i = Math::Complex->new(1,1);

can be manipulated with overloaded math operators. The operators

  + - * / neg ~ abs cos sin exp sqrt

are supported as well as

  "" (stringify)

The methods

  Re Im arg

are also provided.

sqrt() should return two roots, but only returns one.
