[Solved] complex numbers [closed]

Question

You could use Scheme, it’s a nice Lisp-like language that has built-in support for complex numbers. Also, since in Scheme data is code, it is really easy to turn user input into executable code.

Chicken Scheme is a popular variant.

Other popular languages with built-in complex number support are:

R: use i as suffix for imaginary numbers. (1+2i)^2 returns -3+4j.
Python: use j as a suffix for imaginary numbers. (1+2j)**2 returns (-3+4j).
Ruby: use the Complex class.
C: include complex.h and use I as the imaginary unit. See also How to work with complex numbers in C?
