ToPoint Command

ToPoint[ <Complex Number> ]

Creates from the complex number a dependent point with (real(Complex_Number), imaginary(Complex_Number)) coordinates.

Example:

ToPoint[3 + 2ί] yields a dependent point with coordinates (3, 2).

CAS Syntax

ToPoint[ <Complex Number> ]

Creates the free point or vector for the given complex number. Its coordinates are:
(real(Complex_Number), imaginary(Complex_Number)).

Examples:

ToPoint[{3 + 2ί}] yields 2ί + 3. When you click on the right little marble, the complex number z₁ :=2ί + 3 gets visibility and dynamic association with the free point whose coordinates are (3, 2).

ToPoint[3 + 2ί] returns the free vector z = (3,2) and 3 \choose 2 in the Algebra View
