# std::norm(std::complex)

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | numeric‎ | complex

Defined in header `<complex>` |  |
template< class T > T norm( const complex<T>& z ); | (1) |
long double norm( long double z ); | (2) | (since C++11)
template< class DoubleOrInteger > double norm( DoubleOrInteger z ); | (3) | (since C++11)
float norm( float z ); | (4) | (since C++11)

Returns the squared magnitude of the complex number `z`.

(since C++11)Additional overloads are provided for float, double, long double, and all integer types, which are treated as complex numbers with zero imaginary component.
