cplxpair: Complex conjugate pairs

Description

Sort complex numbers into complex conjugate pairs ordered by increasing real part.

Usage

cplxpair(z, tol = 100 * .Machine$double.eps, MARGIN = 2)

Value

Vector, matrix or array containing ordered complex conjugate pairs by increasing real parts.

Arguments

z

Vector, matrix, or array of complex numbers.

tol

Weighting factor 0 < tol < 1, which determines the tolerance of matching. Default: 100 * .Machine$double.eps. (This definition differs from the 'Octave' usage).

MARGIN

Vector giving the subscripts which the function will be applied over. E.g., for a matrix 1 indicates rows, 2 indicates columns, c(1, 2) indicates rows and columns. Where X has named dimnames, it can be a character vector selecting dimension names. Default: 2 (columns).

Details

The negative imaginary complex numbers are placed first within each pair. All real numbers (those with abs(Im (z) / z) < tol) are placed after the complex pairs.

An error is signaled if some complex numbers could not be paired and if all complex numbers are not exact conjugates (to within tol).

Examples

r <- rbind(t(cplxpair(exp(2i * pi * 0:4 / 5))),
           t(exp(2i * pi *c(3, 2, 4, 1, 0) / 5)))
