How do I get the number `(0 + infj)` in python?

Question

I'm using Python 3.9.15 and trying to get the number (0 + infj), i.e. the imaginary part is infinite and the real part is zero. However, I tried several alternatives but all of them gave (nan + infj) instead of (0 + infj).

>>> float('inf') * 1j
(nan+infj)
>>> float('inf') * 1j + 0
(nan+infj)
>>> import numpy as np
>>> np.inf * 1j
(nan+infj)
>>> np.inf * 1j + 0
(nan+infj)

How do I get the number (0 + infj)?

You can use built-in complex function:

complex(0,float('inf'))
