MathCAD - separation of real and imaginary parts of a complex variable

AI Thread Summary
To separate a complex number into its real and imaginary parts, users are seeking guidance on handling complex expressions with multiple variables. While some mention the Re() and Im() functions in MathCad, they express frustration that these functions do not effectively isolate the components as needed. The discussion highlights a need for clearer tutorials or methods to achieve this separation in complex numbers involving various variables.

Hi guys, just wondering whether you could help. I've got a complex number in terms of a lot of variables, and need to separate it into its real and imaginary parts. How do I do that? I spent past hour trying to look for tutorials, unfortunately none tells you how to do it...

Doesn't MacthCad have the Re() and Im() functions?
 
yeah but it doesn't work to separate out the components...

Thread 'Is this public key encryption?'

I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
