Hi, is there a way to plot a function that includes a complex number on a 2-D plane? I have tried searching through the user guide v2 and this forum, but can't seem to find any documentation on it.
For example G(w)=100/(w*i)
I have attached a picture of a wolfram alpha plot below.
Thank you

No, unfortunately, to my knowledge, only real functions can be plotted.
That would be a nice addition though, if the imaginary parts could be plotted as well for complex-valued functions . . .
I think you can use the
RE() and
IM() commands in the Function App like this:

I think your example only shows imaginary values. Other expressions of interest to plot using RE(), IM() might include:
100/(X*(1+i))
i^X
exp^(i*X)
Thanks for asking this! The Prime seems pretty useful for exploring real, imaginary functions this way.
Awesome this is exactly what i needed! Thank you.

Thanks for pointing this out - - that works! I didn't think about IM() because it was somewhat unreliable (together with sqrt) in the previous firmware

but that appears to have been fixed in version 6030!

That's very nice. And a good example of the importance of having color available.
