ComplexVector

Converts an object to a complex vector.

Syntax

If X is any object, then ComplexVector(X) returns X as a complex vector, if possible.

Specifically,

If X is number, then ComplexVector(X) returns the one-dimensional vector with single component X.
If X is a real or complex vector, then ComplexVector(X) returns X as a complex vector.
If X is a real or complex matrix, then ComplexVector(X) returns the complex vector containing the entries of X in row-major order.
If X is a list of numbers, then ComplexVector(X) returns the complex vector containing these numbers. If the list contains any non-numbers, they are ignored.
If X is a set of numbers, then ComplexVector(X) returns a complex vector containing these numbers in undefined order. If the set contains any non-numbers, they are ignored.
If X is a structure containing numbers, then ComplexVector(X) returns the complex vector containing these numbers. Any non-numbers in X are ignored.
If X is a string, it is split on comma, semicolon, tab, and linebreaks, in an attempt to parse it as a complex vector.
