Python uses the same notation used in electrical engineering (or physics)while dealing with complex numbers.
A complex number is represented by x+yi where x and y are real and i=√-1. Also x-yi is called the conjugate of x+yi.
If you multiply i by i the result is -1.

This is how python handles complex numbers.

Built-in functions abs() and pow() also work with complex numbers.
