\end{verbatim}

Support for complex numbers in the Safe space scripting environment is available via the  
LONCAPA::LCMathComplex package, which is the standard Math::Complex module available from CPAN,
modified to work in Safe space.

These functions from LONCAPA::LCMathComplex are available:

\begin{verbatim}
Re($z)
Im($z)
arg($z)
abs($z)
\end{verbatim}

where \$z is a complex number created using the Cartesian form,
where \$a and \$b are numbers in one of the following ways:

\begin{verbatim}
$z = LONCAPA::LCMathComplex->make($a, $b);
$z = cplx($a, $b);
$z = $a + $b*i;
\end{verbatim}

or created using the polar form, where \$m and \$n are numbers, in which the first 
argument is the modulus, and the second is the angle in radians:

\begin{verbatim}
$z = LONCAPA::LCMathComplex->emake($m, pi/$n);
$z = cplxe($m, pi/$n);
\end{verbatim}

Where there is no overlap with function names used for Math::Cephes functions, 
then you can just use the LCMathComplex functions directly, e.g.. \&cplx(), \&Re(), \&Im(), 
but where there is overlap, as is the case for tanh(), to ensure the function from LCMathComplex is called, 
include the full namespace identifier, e.g., &LONCAPA::LCMathComplex::tanh().
