instance method

Complex#/

complex / numeric → new_complex

Returns the quotient of self and numeric:

Example
Complex(2, 3)  / Complex(2, 3)  # => ((1/1)+(0/1)*i)
Complex(900)   / Complex(1)     # => ((900/1)+(0/1)*i)
Complex(-2, 9) / Complex(-9, 2) # => ((36/85)-(77/85)*i)
Complex(9, 8)  / 4              # => ((9/4)+(2/1)*i)
Complex(20, 9) / 9.8            # => (2.0408163265306123+0.9183673469387754i)
