How to find the imaginary and real part of a complex number without .real and .imag?

Question

Python

I have a complex number z = a + bi
I need to get a and b
How can this be done without z.real and z.imag

Answer 1

x = str(2-3j)

digits = []

for letter in x:
  if letter.isdigit():
    digits.append(float(letter))

print(digits) # [2.0, 3.0]

Answer 2

1. You can write your own micro-module in C / C ++ (see documentation , but it will not be platform-independent.
2. Use the struct module. See an example of how to get the binary representation of a float number. You need to do part of the same for complex (float pairs), and then restore the components individually.
