Hi everybody, using LinearAlgebra eigvals([0. 1im;1im 0.]) gives: 2-element Vector{ComplexF64}: 0.0 + 0.9999999999999997im 2.7755575615628914e-17 - 1.0im which is correct but with approximation. I am new to Julia and wondering if anything I’m missing or not. The question ac…

Also, if you need more precision, you can use BigFloats. julia> eigvals([big(0) 1im; 1im 0]) 2-element Vector{Complex{BigFloat}}: 0.0 - 1.0im 0.0 + 1.0im

Eigenvalues are approximately correct, not exactly
