# Base Complex
> Base (i.e., lower-level) complex number functions.
## Usage
```javascript
var complex = require( '@stdlib/complex/base' );
```
#### complex
Namespace containing "base" (i.e., lower-level) complex number functions.
```javascript
var ns = complex;
// returns {...}
```
The namespace contains the following functions:
- [`cast( fcn, nargs, ctor )`][@stdlib/complex/base/cast-return]: wrap a function and cast a function's return value to a complex number.
- [`wrap( fcn, nargs, ctor )`][@stdlib/complex/base/wrap-function]: wrap a function accepting complex number arguments to support providing both real and complex numbers.
## Examples
```javascript
var objectKeys = require( '@stdlib/utils/keys' );
var ns = require( '@stdlib/complex/base' );
console.log( objectKeys( ns ) );
```
