{{draft task}}
Given a [[Arithmetic/Complex|complex number]], find its [[wp:complex conjugate|complex conjugate]]. By definition, the complex conjugate of <math>a + bi</math> is <math>a - bi</math> (where <math>a</math> and <math>b</math> are real numbers, and <math>i</math> is the square root of -1).
Some languages have complex number libraries available. If possible, use your library's operation for complex conjugate.
=={{header|Factor}}==
<lang factor>USING: math.functions prettyprint ;
C{ 2 3 } conjugate . ! prints C{ 2 -3 }
C{ 4 -5 } conjugate . ! prints C{ 4 5 }</lang>
=={{header|Ruby}}==
<lang ruby>require 'complex' # With Ruby 1.9, this line is optional.
# Complex#conj or Complex#conjugate finds the conjugate.
