abs and complex numbers

Abs in Python code Complex numbers have their place Magnitude revealed

python shell for abs and complex numbers

In Python, I learned of abs and complex numbers,
The function finds the absolute value, a wonder.
For complex numbers, it gives the magnitude,
Represented with j, a mathematical latitude.

Today, I learned about the abs() function in Python, which can be used to find the absolute value of a number, whether it’s a real number or a complex number. When dealing with complex numbers, the abs() function returns the magnitude of the complex number, which is the distance of the number from the origin on the complex plane. I also learned that complex numbers in Python are represented using the j or J suffix to denote the imaginary part, and the real and imaginary parts are accessed using the real and imag attributes. It’s important to note that when using the abs() function with complex numbers, it only returns the magnitude and not the square of the magnitude. Additionally, I learned that the abs() function can also be used with lists and tuples to find the absolute values of the elements in the collection.
