 data type</h2>
<p>The <code>complex</code> data type is a scalar, but unlike <code>real</code> and <code>int</code>
types, it contains two components, a real and imaginary component,
both of which are of type <code>real</code>. That is, the real and imaginary
components of a complex number are 64-bit, IEEE 754-complaint floating
point numbers.</p>
