Help needed for checking whether the gradient values for any computation is correct or not. Any pointers for improvement would also be appreciated.

The current definition of the power (**) operator does not work because of the following line:

for _ in range(other):
Since other (which is a complex number) is not countable, this line will throw an error.

When raising one complex number to the power of another complex number the use of polar coordinates will make our work easier.

In the complex_engine.py file, I've implemented the gradient as a complex number, treating the real and imaginary parts as separate entities, but have not find an explanation whether I am correct or not. Any help on this would be really awesome. After that, we can move on to write some tests and check whether it makes sense or not.

• Understand the gradient terminology. See of this as a more general version of the real number.
• Once this is understood, work on some tests and check the validity.

The ComplexValue class converts any Complex object into ComplexValue when multiplying. But when multiplying ComplexValue with Complex, the following exception is met:

"Can't do that bro."

The reason for this is that the Complex class does not allow multiplication with any other class type. That is, the case of Complex being multiplied with ComplexValue is not handled in the definition of Complex class. Hence, an exception is raised.
compare the multiplication definitions in both classes for reference

To recreate the problem, run the code snippet below

z1 = Complex(1, 2)
z2 = ComplexValue(Complex(1, 0))

c = z1 * z2 
print(c)
