conj

conj(z)

Compute the complex conjugate of a complex number z

Examples

Compute the complex conjugate of a complex number:
```
julia> z = 3 + 4im;
julia> conj(z)
3 - 4im
```
This example calculates the complex conjugate of the complex number z, which is 3 - 4im.
Use the conj function with an array of complex numbers:
```
julia> arr = [1 + 2im, 2 - 3im, 4 + 5im];
julia> conj.(arr)
3-element Array{Complex{Int64},1}:
1 - 2im
2 + 3im
4 - 5im
```
The conj. syntax applies the conj function element-wise to an array of complex numbers.
Handle the conjugate of a real number:
```
julia> x = 7;
julia> conj(x)
7
```
When a real number is provided as input, the conj function simply returns the same value.

Common mistake example:

julia> z = 2 + 3im;
julia> conj(z, 4)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching conj(::Complex{Int64}, ::Int64)

In this example, an additional argument is provided to the conj function, which is not supported. The conj function only takes a single argument, which should be a complex number.
