Use IMMULT to return the product of 2 complex numbers in x + yi or x + yj text format. The product of 2 complex numbers is computed as:
Syntax
SELECT [wctEngineering].[wct].[IMMULT] (
<@inumber1, nvarchar(4000),>
,<@inumber2, nvarchar(4000),>)
Arguments
@inumber1
is the first value used in evaluating the function. @inumber1 is an expression of type varchar or of a type that can be implicitly converted to varchar and must be in the format x + yi or x + yj, where x is a real number that can be converted to float and yi (or yj) is an imaginary number, where the y part can be converted to float.
@inumber2
is the second value used in evaluating the function. @inumber2 is an expression of type varchar or of a type that can be implicitly converted to varchar and must be in the format x + yi or x + yj, where x is a real number that can be converted to float and yi (or yj) is an imaginary number, where the y part can be converted to float.
Return Types
varchar(4000)
Remarks
· Use COMPLEX to convert real and imaginary coefficients into a complex number
Examples
select wct.IMMULT('7+24i','6-25i')
This produces the following result
-------------------------
642-31i
