1) Returns the imaginary component of the complex number `z`, i.e. z.imag().

2) Additional overloads are provided for float, double, long double, and all integer types, which are treated as complex numbers with zero imaginary component. | (since C++11)

### Parameters

z | - | complex value

### Return value

the imaginary component of `z`

imag | accesses the imaginary part of the complex number (public member function)
real | returns the real component (function template)
