-Create a complex number from a real part and an optional imaginary part.
+Create a complex number from a string or numbers.
-This is equivalent to (real + imag*1j) where imag defaults to 0.
+If a string is given, parse it as a complex number.
+If a single number is given, convert it to a complex number.
+If the 'real' or 'imag' arguments are given, create a complex number
+with the specified real and imaginary components.
