Complex Number Calculator implementation

Binding contract

This record describes what an executable surface must bind and validate. It does not claim that a public calculator, package, or production route is deployed.

Effect

Computation or source lookup only

Input and validation requirements

The specification does not state whether polar angles are in degrees or radians, so an input such as 2∠90 has two valid but substantially different outputs. Zero has an undefined argument and zero-denominator division must also be rejected explicitly.

Required corrections

No binding erratum is attached to this unique-name record. Implementers must still preserve the declared units, domain, and failure behavior.

Inspectable interface fixture

The sample below is evidence for interface and validation tests, not a production implementation.

  "inputs": {
    "operation": "add",
    "z1": "3+4i",
    "z2": "1-2i"
  },
  "expected_outputs": {
    "rectangular": "4+2i",
    "modulus": 4.472135955,

    "polar": "4.472135955∠0.463647609 rad"
  },
  "working": "(3+4i)+(1-2i)=(3+1)+(4-2)i=4+2i. |z|=sqrt(4^2+2^2)=sqrt(16+4)=sqrt(20)=2sqrt(5)=4.472135955. arg(z)=atan2(2,4)=atan(1/2)=0.463647609 rad."
