Math::GSL::Complex - Complex Numbers
SYNOPSIS
use Math::GSL::Complex qw/:all/;

my $imag = $complex->imag; # returns the imaginary part
$complex->gsl_set_real(5); # changes the real part to 5
$complex->gsl_set_imag(4); # changes the imaginary part to 4
$complex->gsl_set_complex(7,6); # changes it to 7 + 6*i
($real, $imag) = $complex->parts; # get both at once

EXAMPLES
This code defines $z as 6 + 4*i, takes the complex conjugate of that number, then prints
it out.
my $z = gsl_complex_rect(6,4);
my $y = gsl_complex_conjugate($z);
my ($real, $imag) = gsl_parts($y);
print "z = $real + $imag*i\n";
This code defines $z as 5 + 3*i, multiplies it by 2 and then prints it out.
my $x = gsl_complex_rect(5,3);
my $z = gsl_complex_mul_real($x, 2);
my $real = gsl_real($z);
my $imag = gsl_imag($z);
print "Re(\$z) = $real\n";
