Method: Complex#*

Defined in:

complex.c

#*(numeric) ⇒ Object

Performs multiplication.

Complex(2, 3)  * Complex(2, 3)   #=> (-5+12i)
Complex(900)   * Complex(1)      #=> (900+0i)
Complex(-2, 9) * Complex(-9, 2)  #=> (0-85i)
Complex(9, 8)  * 4               #=> (36+32i)
Complex(20, 9) * 9.8             #=> (196.0+88.2i)
