# Installation

```shell
composer require markbaker/complex:^1.0
```

# Important BC Note

If you've previously been using procedural calls to functions and operations using this library, then from version 3.0 you should use [MarkBaker/PHPComplexFunctions](https://github.com/MarkBaker/PHPComplexFunctions) instead (available on packagist as [markbaker/complex-functions](https://packagist.org/packages/markbaker/complex-functions)).

You'll need to replace `markbaker/complex`in your `composer.json` file with the new library, but otherwise there should be no difference in the namespacing, or in the way that you have called the Complex functions in the past, so no actual code changes are required.

```shell
composer require markbaker/complex-functions:^3.0
```

You should not reference this library (`markbaker/complex`) in your `composer.json`, composer wil take care of that for you.

# Usage

To create a new complex object, you can provide either the real, imaginary and suffix parts as individual values, or as an array of values passed passed to the constructor; or a string representing the value. e.g

```php
$real = 1.23;
$imaginary = -4.56;
$suffix = 'i';

$complexObject = new Complex\Complex($real, $imaginary, $suffix);
```
or as an array
```php
$real = 1.23;
$imaginary = -4.56;
$suffix = 'i';

$arguments = [$real, $imaginary, $suffix];

$complexObject = new Complex\Complex($arguments);
```
or as a string
```php
$complexString = '1.23-4.56i';

$complexObject = new Complex\Complex($complexString);
```

Complex objects are immutable: whenever you call a method or pass a complex value to a function that returns a complex value, a new Complex object will be returned, and the original will remain unchanged.
This also allows you to chain multiple methods as you would for a fluent interface (as long as they are methods that will return a Complex result).

## Performing Mathematical Operations

To perform mathematical operations with Complex values, you can call the appropriate method against a complex value, passing other values as arguments

```php
$complexString1 = '1.23-4.56i';
$complexString2 = '2.34+5.67i';

$complexObject = new Complex\Complex($complexString1);
echo $complexObject->add($complexString2);
```

or use the static Operation methods
```php
$complexString1 = '1.23-4.56i';
$complexString2 = '2.34+5.67i';

echo Complex\Operations::add($complexString1, $complexString2);
```
If you want to perform the same operation against multiple values (e.g. to add three or more complex numbers), then you can pass multiple arguments to any of the operations.

You can pass these arguments as Complex objects, or as an array, or string that will parse to a complex object.

## Using functions

When calling any of the available functions for a complex value, you can either call the relevant method for the Complex object
```php
$complexString = '1.23-4.56i';

$complexObject = new Complex\Complex($complexString);
echo $complexObject->sinh();
```

or use the static Functions methods
```php
$complexString = '1.23-4.56i';

echo Complex\Functions::sinh($complexString);
```
As with operations, you can pass these arguments as Complex objects, or as an array or string that will parse to a complex object.


In the case of the `pow()` function (the only implemented function that requires an additional argument) you need to pass both arguments when calling the function

```php
$complexString = '1.23-4.56i';

$complexObject = new Complex\Complex($complexString);
echo Complex\Functions::pow($complexObject, 2);
```
or pass the additional argument when calling the method
```php
$complexString = '1.23-4.56i';

$complexObject = new Complex\Complex($complexString);
echo $complexObject->pow(2);
```

Enhancing Payment Security: The Role of Encryption and Tokenization in Digital Transactions

As digital transactions proliferate, ensuring robust payment security is more critical than ever. Two foundational technologies that are pivotal in this effort are encryption and tokenization.
Encryption is a process that transforms data into a secure format, known as ciphertext, which can only be deciphered using a specific decryption key. This means that even if data is intercepted during transmission, it remains unreadable and protected from unauthorized access. Encryption is essential in safeguarding sensitive payment information, such as credit card details and personal data, during online transactions.
Tokenization, on the other hand, involves substituting sensitive data with unique identifiers or "tokens." These tokens serve as placeholders and have no value outside of the specific transaction context. If intercepted, tokens are meaningless and cannot be used to access the original sensitive data. This method significantly reduces the risk of fraud and data breaches, as the actual payment information is not stored or transmitted.
Together, encryption and tokenization form a powerful security framework. Encryption ensures that data is protected during transmission, while tokenization minimizes the risk of exposing sensitive information by replacing it with secure, non-sensitive tokens.
These technologies are integral to modern payment platforms, providing a robust defense against cyber threats. By implementing advanced encryption and tokenization techniques, businesses can enhance the security of digital transactions, ensuring that users' financial and personal information remains safe. This comprehensive approach not only builds user trust but also fortifies the overall security infrastructure of digital payment systems. As cyber threats evolve, the continued advancement of encryption and tokenization will be crucial in maintaining secure and reliable payment processes.
