SPECIALIZATIONS

SYNOPSIS

  #include <complex>

  template <class T>
  class complex ;

  class complex<float>;
  class complex<double>;
  class complex<long double>;

DESCRIPTION

  complex<T> is a class that supports complex numbers. A complex number has a
  real part and an imaginary part. The complex class supports equality,
  comparison and basic arithmetic operations. In addition, mathematical
  functions such as exponents, logarithms, powers, and square roots are also
  available.

   #include <iostream.h>

WARNINGS

  On compilers that don't support member function templates, the arithmetic
  operators will not work on any arbitrary type.  (They will work only on
  float, double and long doubles.)  You also will only be able to perform
  binary arithmetic on types that are the same.

  Compilers that don't support non-converting constructors will permit unsafe
  downcasts (i.e., long double to double, double to float, long double to
  float).
