<p id="index-0">Python’s complex number objects are implemented as two distinct types when
viewed from the C API: one is the Python object exposed to Python programs, and
the other is a C structure which represents the actual complex number value.
The API provides functions for working with both.</p>
<div class="section" id="complex-numbers-as-c-structures">
<h2>Complex Numbers as C Structures<a class="headerlink" href="#complex-numbers-as-c-structures" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Note that the functions which accept these structures as parameters and return
them as results do so <em>by value</em> rather than dereferencing them through
pointers. This is consistent throughout the API.</p>

number object. Most of the functions for dealing with complex number objects
use structures of this type as input or output values, as appropriate. It is
