Given a complex number z, the task is to determine the modulus of this complex number. Note: Given a complex number z = a + ib the modulus is denoted by |z| and is defined as \left | z \right | = \sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}} Examples:

Input: z = 3 + 4i 
Output: 5 |z| = (32 + 42)1/2 = (9 + 16)1/2 = 5 

Input: z = 6 – 8i 
Output: 10 
Explanation: |z| = (62 + (-8)2)1/2 = (36 + 64)1/2 = 10

Approach: For the given complex number z = x + iy:

  1. Find the real and imaginary parts, x and y respectively.
If z = x +iy

Real part = x
Imaginary part = y
  1. Find the square of x and y separately.
Square of Real part = x2
Square of Imaginary part = y2
  1. Find the sum of the computed squares.
Sum = Square of Real part 
      + Square of Imaginary part
    = x2 + y2
  1. Find the square root of the computed sum. This will be the modulus of the given complex number
\left | z \right | = \sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++




// C++ program to find the
// Modulus of a Complex Number
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find modulus
// of a complex number
void findModulo(string s)
{
    int l = s.length();
    int i, modulus = 0;
 
    // Storing the index of '+'
    if (s.find('+') < l) {
        i = s.find('+');
    }
    // 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 - 1);
 
    int x = stoi(real);
    int y = stoi(imaginary);
 
    cout << sqrt(x * x + y * y) << "\n";
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    string s = "3+4i";
 
    findModulo(s);
 
    return 0;
}

    int l = s.length();
    int i, modulus = 0;
  
    // Storing the index of '+'
    if (s.contains("+")) {
        i = s.indexOf("+");
    }
 
    // 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);
  
    int x = Integer.parseInt(real);
    int y = Integer.parseInt(imaginary);
  
    System.out.print(Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y)+ "\n");
}
  
// Driver code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
    String s = "3+4i";
  
    findModulo(s);
}

Output:

5

Time Complexity: O(1)
Auxiliary Space: O(1)

As constant extra space is used
