Please explain the output for print(abs(3+4j))

Question

How output comes 5.0

Answer 1

Absolute value is actually the distance between a given number and 0. If you think of a complex number as a two-dimensional tuple (for real and imaginary parts, respectively), you have, let's say:

3 + 4i (or 3 + 4j in Python)

Now, the distance is the square root of the sums of squares, so:

√(3² + 4²) = √(9 + 16) = √(25) = 5.0
