A complex number may be represented as
(1) |
where is a positive real number called the complex modulus of , and (sometimes also denoted ) is a real number called the argument. The argument is sometimes also known as the phase or, more rarely and more confusingly, the amplitude (Derbyshire 2004, pp. 180-181 and 376).
The complex argument of a number is implemented in the Wolfram Language as Arg[z].
The complex argument can be computed as
(2) |
Here, , sometimes also denoted , corresponds to the counterclockwise angle from the positive real axis, i.e., the value of such that and . The special kind of inverse tangent used here takes into account the quadrant in which lies and is returned by the FORTRAN command ATAN2(y, x) and the Wolfram Language function ArcTan[x, y], and is often (including by the Wolfram Language function Arg) restricted to the range . In the degenerate case when ,

From the definition of the argument, the complex argument of a product of two numbers is equal to the sum of their arguments,

It therefore follows that

Note that all these identities will hold only modulo factors of if the argument is being restricted to .
