topic: Complex Data Types
Complex number data types.
See for instance numpy/numpy#13797. It might be useful to have a special function for a hermitian transpose, which would be equivalent to
conjugate(matrix_transpose(x))
.The other suggestion is a
.H
operator on matrices. A complication here is that libraries that use views would not be able to make.H
a view unless they add a special conjugate-complex dtype. See the discussion at numpy/numpy#13797. (the.H
attribute is really the bigger thing here, as it least to more readable code, but if it is added it probably makes sense to also add a corresponding function)The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
