CFactor Command

This command works in CAS View only.

CFactor[ <Expression> ]

Factorizes a given expression, allowing for complex factors.

Example:

CFactor[x^2 + 4] yields (x + 2ί) (x - 2ί), the factorization of x² + 4.

CFactor[ <Expression>, <Variable> ]

Factorizes an expression with respect to a given variable, allowing for complex factors.

Example:

CFactor[a^2 + x^2, a] gives (a + ί x) (a - ί x), the factorization of a² + x² with respect to a.

Example:

CFactor[a^2 + x^2, x] gives (x + ί a) (x - ί a), the factorization of a² + x² with respect to x.
