Floating point complex modulus
Calculating a floating point complex modulus isn't quite trivial. The naive method may encounter overflow, underflow, or loss of precision due to the intermediate floating point results. A simple remedy[1] is:
require('complex-modulus')( a, b )
Calculates |a + ib| and returns a number
var cmod = require('complex-modulus');
var result = cmod( 3, 4 );
// result = 5
