So the imaginary numbers would be standard literals? Like $x=2+10i; Great idea, as well as sqrt(-1) returning 1i istead of raising the exception. BTW, I was thinking once that numeral literals like 4k or 10G (meaning 4*2**10, 10*2**30) would be very nice. What do you think? - RaFaL Pocztarski, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
