Method Details

  If either this or addend has a NaN value in either part, NaN is returned; otherwise Infinite and NaN values are returned in the parts of the result according to the rules for Double arithmetic.

  Specified by:

  Parameters:

  addend - Value to be added to this Complex.

  Returns:

  NaN is returned if either the real or imaginary part of this Complex number equals Double.NaN.

  If the imaginary part is infinite, and the real part is not NaN, the returned value has infinite imaginary part of the opposite sign, e.g. the conjugate of 1 + POSITIVE_INFINITY i is 1 - NEGATIVE_INFINITY i.

  but uses prescaling of operands to limit the effects of overflows and underflows in the computation.

  Infinite and NaN values are handled according to the following rules, applied in the order presented:

  • If either this or divisor has a NaN value in either part, NaN is returned.
  • If divisor equals ZERO, NaN is returned.
  • If this and divisor are both infinite, NaN is returned.
  • If this is finite (i.e., has no Infinite or NaN parts) and divisor is infinite (one or both parts infinite), ZERO is returned.
