An algorithm for scaling vectors by the reciprocal of a complex number

This document describes an algorithm to scale a complex vector by the reciprocal of a complex value. The algorithm computes the reciprocal of the complex value and then scales the vector by the reciprocal. Some scaling may be necessary due to this 2-step strategy, and the proposed algorithm takes scaling into account. This algorithm is supposed to be faster than the naive approach of dividing each entry of the vector by the complex value, without losing much accuracy. It also serves as a single strategy for scaling vectors by the reciprocal of a complex value, which improves the software maintainability.
