make-rectangular real imaginary Scheme Procedure
scm_make_rectangular (real, imaginary) C Function
Return a complex number constructed of the given real and imaginary parts.

make-polar x y Scheme Procedure
scm_make_polar (x, y) C Function
Return the complex number x * e^(i * y).

real-part Scheme Procedure
Return the real part of the number z.

imag-part Scheme Procedure
Return the imaginary part of the number z.

magnitude Scheme Procedure
Return the magnitude of the number z. This is the same as abs for real arguments, but also allows complex numbers.

angle Scheme Procedure
Return the angle of the complex number z.
