Understanding the Implementation of Complex Numbers in Python
Whether you're diving into the depths of mathematics or tackling complex equations in programming, the need to manage complex numbers often arises. In Python, this can seem intimidating at first. However, by effectively leveraging built-in features or creating your own Complex class, you can handle complex numbers with ease. In this post, we’ll explore how to implement complex numbers in Python by showing practical examples and clear explanations.
The Problem: Implementing Complex Number Functionality
You need to create a program that correctly implements a class for complex numbers. The specific requirements include being able to add, subtract, multiply, and determine the conjugate of complex numbers. Additionally, the program should produce outputs as per the given format, showcasing both the real and imaginary parts properly.
Here's an example of the desired input and output:

The Solution: Building the Complex Class
Let's break down the solution into several easy-to-follow steps.
Step 1: Basic Class Structure
Begin by creating a class named Complex. This class should contain the real and imaginary components. Here’s how you can set it up:

_init_ method: Initializes the real and imaginary attributes of a complex number.
_str_ method: Enables a pleasant print format for complex numbers, displaying both parts.
Step 2: Implementing Operations
Next, we need to define how to manipulate complex numbers. This includes addition, subtraction, multiplication, and calculating the conjugate.

__add__: Defines how to add two complex numbers.
__sub__: Defines how to subtract two complex numbers.
__mul__: Defines how to multiply two complex numbers.
conjugate: Returns the conjugate of the complex number.
Step 3: Integrating the Main Function
You cannot change the main() method per the requirements, but you can use your Complex class within it. Here is how it all comes together in main:
