Forms a std::complex literal representing an imaginary number.

Parameters

Return value

The std::complex literal with the real part zero and imaginary part arg

Possible implementation

constexpr std::complex<double> operator""i(unsigned long long d);
{
    return std::complex<double>{0.0, static_cast<double>(d)}.
}
constexpr std::complex<long double> operator""i(double d);
{
    return std::complex<double>{0.0, d}.
}

Notes

These operators are declared in the namespace std::literals::complex_literals, where both literals and complex_literals are inline namespaces. Access to these operators can be gained with using namespace std::literals and using namespace std::literals::complex_literals.

Even though if is a keyword in C++, it is a ud-suffix of the literal operator of the form operator ""if and in the literal expressions such as 1if or 1.0if because it is not separated by whitespace and is not a standalone token.

Example

#include <iostream>
#include <complex>
 
int main()
{
    using namespace std::literals::complex_literals;
    std::complex<double> c = 1.0 + 1i;
    std::cout << "abs" << c << " = " << abs(c) << '\n';
}

abs(1,1) = 1.41421
