Complex128
- Import can read any binary data as a sequence of 128-bit complex numbers.
- Export converts a list of integer, real, or complex numbers to a sequence of binary 128-bit complex numbers.
- IEEE single-precision numbers can be imported and exported using the "Complex64" format.
Background & Context
 
   - 
      - Uniform sequence of IEEE double-precision complex numbers.
 - Binary data format.
 
Import & Export
 
   - Import["file","Complex128"] imports any file as IEEE double-precision complex numbers, returning a packed array of real numbers.
- Export["file",list,"Complex128"] exports a list of complex numbers to file.
- Import["file",{"Complex128",elem}] or Import["file",elem ] imports the specified element from file.
- Import["file",{"Complex128",{elem1,elem2,…}}] imports multiple elements.
- See the following reference pages for full general information:

      Import, Export import from or export to a file CloudImport, CloudExport import from or export to a cloud object ImportString, ExportString import from or export to a string ImportByteArray, ExportByteArray import from or export to a byte array 
Import Elements
 
   - General Import elements:
- 
      
      "Elements" list of elements and options available in this file "Summary" summary of the file "Rules" list of rules for all available elements 
- Data representation element:
- 
      
      "Data" list of complex numbers 
- By default, Import and Export use the "Data" element.
- Import["file",{"Complex128",n}] reads the n double-precision complex number from file. double-precision complex number from file.
- Import returns Infinity for IEEE "infinity", and Indeterminate for IEEE "not‐a‐number".
- Trailing bytes are ignored if the size of the imported file is not a multiple of the data size.
Options
 
   - General option:
- 
      
      ByteOrdering $ByteOrdering what byte ordering to use 
- Import option:
- 
      
      "HeaderBytes" 0 how many bytes to skip at the beginning of the file
