I would like to be able to use complex numbers through pythonnet. To achieve this, encoders/decoders should translate between a PyComplex class based on the https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/complex.html#c.PyComplex_Type and the System.Numerics.Complex class.
-
I created a minimal class to create a System.Numerics.Complex from real and imaginary parts and return it to Python and to print a System.Numerics.Complex passed to a function (see attached source code).
-
I compiling the solution and copied the resulting dll into a
Complexfolder with the__init__.pyandclr_runtime.jsonfiles in the attached zip file. -
I ran ipython in the directory containing
Complexand ran the following commands:
import Complex
test = Complex.ComplexNS().Test()
test.makeComplex(1.0, 1.0) # test 1
test.convertComplex(1j) # test 2
- The result of test.makeComplex(1.0, 1.0) was <System.Numerics.Complex object at 0x000001A8F1C03380>, whereas I was expecting 1 + 1j
- The traceback is
- In [5]: test.convertComplex(1j)
