	x + iy can be a complex number, array or cluster of complex numbers, an array of cluster of complex numbers, and so on.
	x is of the same data type structure as x + iy, with scalar representation instead of complex.
	y is of the same data type structure as x + iy, with scalar representation instead of complex.

Complex To Re/Im Details

When you wire matrix data as an input to this function, a VI that includes subVIs that work with the matrix data type replaces the function. The resulting VI has the same icon but contains a matrix-specific algorithm. The node remains a VI if you disconnect the matrix from the input(s). Wire other data types as inputs to restore the original function. If you wire a data type to a function and that data type causes a basic math operation to fail, the function returns an empty matrix or NaN.
