A little question on naming in num::complex.

num::complex calls

• "norm" what is typically called the modulus or absolute value (i.e. (re^2+im^2).sqrt()) and
• "norm_sqr" what is typically called the norm (i.e. re^2+im^2).

I found this when comparing fn-names in the documentation to Complex number - Wikipedia.
