An abstraction layer for [sparse21](https://crates.io/crates/sparse21/) that adds support for complex sparse matrices.
## Complex Number representation
In this implementation, a complex number is represented as a tuple of ```f64```.
Where the first element is the real part and the second is the imaginary part, as shown bellow:
```rust
let complex_number: (f64, f64) = (1.0 , 1.0) // 1 + j1
```
The use of ```f64``` is a limitation of [sparse21](https://crates.io/crates/sparse21/).
## Usage
Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
sparse_complex = "0.1"
```
## Example
Lets consider the complex linear system bellow:
<div align="center"><img style="background: white;" src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=%5Cbegin%7Bbmatrix%7D%0A1%20%2B%20j1%20%26%200%5C%5C%0A0%20%26%201%2B%20j1%0A%5Cend%7Bbmatrix%7D%0A%5Cbegin%7Bbmatrix%7D%0Ax_1%20%5C%5C%0Ax_2%0A%5Cend%7Bbmatrix%7D%3D%0A%5Cbegin%7Bbmatrix%7D%0A1%20%5C%5C%0Aj1%0A%5Cend%7Bbmatrix%7D"></div>
We can solve this system as follows:
```rust
use sparse_complex::ComplexMatrix;
let mut a = ComplexMatrix::new();
a.add_element(0, 0, (1., 1.));
a.add_element(1, 1, (1., 1.));
let b = [(1., 0.), (0., 1.)];
let solution = a.solve(&b);
assert_eq!(solution.unwrap(), vec![(0.5, -0.5), (0.5, 0.5)]);
```
The solution of this system is:
<div align="center"><img style="background: white;" src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%0A%5Cbegin%7Bbmatrix%7D%0A1%20-j1%20%5C%5C%0A1%20%2B%20j1%0A%5Cend%7Bbmatrix%7D"></div>
## Vesion Compatible
The ```sparse_complex``` crate is tested for rustc 1.50 and greater.
