Using "help -i conjugate", I managed to find this:

X'
     Complex conjugate transpose.  For real arguments, this operator is
     the same as the transpose operator.  For complex arguments, this
     operator is equivalent to the expression

          conj (x.')


Then, "help conj" returned this:

conj is a builtin function

conj (X): compute complex conjugate for each element of X

Additional help for builtin functions, operators, and variables
is available in the on-line version of the manual.  Use the command
`help -i <topic>' to search the manual index.


Best,

Mike
