creating Inf*i

[withaar]

Hi all,

I need to create an imaginary infinity number. These methods don't work:

a = complex(0,Inf)
a = 1i*Inf

Both methods multiply (0+i)*Inf and the result is NaN+Infi because 0*Inf
is undefined. This, however, works:

a = (1i*realmax)*2

Is there a better way to do this?


cheers,

Willem
