Given four integers a, b, c, and d which represents two complex numbers of the form (a + bi) and (c + di), the task is to find the product of the given complex numbers using only three multiplication operations.
Examples: 

Input: a = 2, b = 3, c = 4 and d = 5 
Output: -7 + 22i 
Explanation: 
Product is given by: 
(2 + 3i)*(4 + 5i) = 2*4 + 4*3i + 2*5i + 3*5*(-1) 
= 8 – 15 + (12 + 10)i 
= -7 + 22i
Input: a = 3, b = 7, c = 6 and d = 2 
Output: 4 + 48i  

 

Naive Approach: The naive approach is to directly multiply given two complex numbers as: 

=> (a + bi)*(c + di) 
=> a(c + di) + b*i(c + di) 
=> a*c + ad*i + b*c*i + b*d*i*i 
=> (a*c – b*d) + (a*d + b*c)*i  

The above operations would required four multiplication to find the product of two complex number.
Efficient Approach: The above approach required four multiplication to find the product. It can be reduced to three multiplication as:
Multiplication of two Complex Numbers is as follows: 

(a + bi)*(c + di) = a*c – b*d + (a*d + b*c)i  

Simplify real part:

real part = a*c – b*d 
Let prod1 = a*c and prod2 = b*d. 
Thus, real part = prod1 – prod2  

Simplify the imaginary part as follows: 

imaginary part = a*d + b*c
Adding and subtracting a*c and b*d in the above imaginar part we have,
imaginary part = a*c – a*c + a*d + b*c + b*d – b*d, 
On rearranging the terms we get, 
=> a*b + b*c + a*d + b*d – a*c – b*d 
=> (a + b)*c + (a + b)*d – a*c – b*d 
=> (a + b)*(c + d) – a*c – b*d
Let prod3 = (a + b)*(c + d) 
Then the imaginary part is given by prod3 – (prod1 + prod2).  

Thus, we need to find the value of prod1 = a * c, prod2 = b * d, and prod3 = ( a + b ) * ( c + d ).
So, our final answer will be:  

Real Part = prod1 – prod2 
Imaginary Part = prod3 – (prod1 + prod2)  

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

void print_product(int a, int b,
                   int c, int d)
{
    // Find value of prod1, prod2 and prod3
    int prod1 = a * c;
    int prod2 = b * d;
    int prod3 = (a + b) * (c + d);
 
    // Real Part
    int real = prod1 - prod2;
 
    // Imaginary Part
    int imag = prod3 - (prod1 + prod2);
 
    // Print the result
    cout << real << " + " << imag << "i";
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    int a, b, c, d;
 
    // Given four Numbers
    a = 2;

    // Function Call
    print_product(a, b, c, d);
    return 0;
}

                          int c, int d)
{
     
    // Find value of prod1, prod2 and prod3
    int prod1 = a * c;
    int prod2 = b * d;
    int prod3 = (a + b) * (c + d);
 
    // Real Part
    int real = prod1 - prod2;
 
    // Imaginary Part
    int imag = prod3 - (prod1 + prod2);
 
    // Print the result
    System.out.println(real + " + " +
                       imag + "i");
}
 
// Driver Code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
     
    // Given four numbers
    int a = 2;
    int b = 3;
    int c = 4;
    int d = 5;
     
    // Function call
    print_product(a, b, c, d);
