Given a complex number Z, the task is to determine the real and imaginary parts of this complex number.
Examples: 
 

Input: z = 3 + 4i 
Output: Real part: 3, Imaginary part: 4
Input: z = 6 – 8i 
Output: Real part: 6, Imaginary part: 8 
 

 

Approach: A complex number can be represented as Z = x + yi, where x is real part and y is imaginary. 
We will follow the below steps to separate out real and imaginary part 
 

  1. Find out the index of + or operator in the string
  2. Real part will be a substring starting from index 0 to a length (index of operator – 1)
  3. Imaginary part will be a substring starting from index (index of operator + 1) to (length of string – index of operator – 2)

Implementation: 
 

C++




// C++ program to find the real and
// imaginary parts of a Complex Number
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find real and imaginary
// parts of a complex number
void findRealAndImag(string s)
{
    // string length stored in variable l
    int l = s.length();
 
    // variable for the index of the separator
    int i;
 
    // Storing the index of '+'
    if (s.find('+') < l) {
        i = s.find('+');
    }
    // else storing the index of '-'
    else {
        i = s.find('-');
    }
 
    // Finding the real part
    // of the complex number
    string real = s.substr(0, i);
 
    // Finding the imaginary part
    // of the complex number
    string imaginary = s.substr(i + 1, l - i - 2);
 
    cout << "Real part: " << real << "\n";
    cout << "Imaginary part: "
         << imaginary << "\n";
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    string s = "3+4i";
 
    findRealAndImag(s);
 
    return 0;

    {
        // string length stored in variable l
        int l = s.length();
      
        // variable for the index of the separator
        int i;
      
        // Storing the index of '+'
        if (s.indexOf('+') != -1) {
            i = s.indexOf('+');
        }
 
        // else storing the index of '-'
        else {
            i = s.indexOf('-');
        }
       
        // Finding the real part
        // of the complex number
        String real = s.substring(0, i);
      
        // Finding the imaginary part
        // of the complex number
        String imaginary = s.substring(i + 1, l - 1);
      
        System.out.println("Real part: " + real );
        System.out.println("Imaginary part: "+
              imaginary);
    }
      
    // Driver code
    public static void main(String []args)
    {
        String s = "3+4i";
      
        findRealAndImag(s);
     
    }

<script>
 
// JavaScript program to find the real and

    // Function to find real and imaginary
    // parts of a complex number
    function findRealAndImag(s)
    {
        // string length stored in variable l
        let l = s.length - 1;
      
        // variable for the index of the separator
        let i;
      
        // Storing the index of '+'

            i = s.indexOf('-');
        }
       
        // Finding the real part

        let real = s.substr(0, i);
      
        // Finding the imaginary part
        // of the complex number
        let imaginary = s.substr(i + 1, l - 2 );
      
        document.write("Real part: " + real +"<br/>" );
        document.write("Imaginary part: "+
              imaginary);
    }
      
// Driver code
 
    let s = "3+4i";
      
    findRealAndImag(s);
 
</script>


Output: 

Real part: 3
Imaginary part: 4

 

Performance Analysis:
 

  • Time Complexity: In the above approach, as we are doing a constant number of operations regardless of the length of string, the time complexity is O(1)
  • Auxiliary Space Complexity: In the above approach, we are not using any extra space apart from a few variables. So Auxiliary space complexity is O(1)
