Axel Kramer commented on MATH-402:
----------------------------------
Sorry for my stupid suggestion in the first post.
It should be something like this:
{code:java}
public Complex pow(Complex x) {
if (x == null) {
throw new NullPointerException();
}
if (x.real == 0.0 && x.imaginary == 0.0) {
if (real == 0.0 && imaginary == 0.0) {
// 0^0 => NaN
return Complex.NaN;
}
// THIS^0 => 1 for THIS<>0
return Complex.ONE;
}
if (real == 0.0 && imaginary == 0.0) {
// 0^x => 0 for x<>0
return Complex.ZERO;
}
return this.log().multiply(x).exp();
}
{code}
> Complex.ZERO.pow(Complex.ONE) gives NaN in unit tests

> Why does this unit test in ComplexTest.java gives NaN?
> I expected to get Complex.ZERO as the result?
> {code:java}
> public void testPowZero() {
> TestUtils.assertSame(Complex.NaN,
> Complex.ZERO.pow(Complex.ONE));
> ...

> {code}
> I would suggest something like this for the Complex#pow() method:
> {code:java}

> if (x == null) {
> throw new NullPointerException();

> if (x.imaginary == 0.0) {
