I realize this is not an immediate help to you, but the draft proposed
Extended Pascal Standard has complex numbers built-in as a "simple" type
(e.g., infix operators are supported), along with functions operating on
complex numbers. You can also have parameters and functions of type complex,
as with any data type. Incidently, Extended Pascal allows functions to be of
most any structured type (except, of course, files, since they are not an
assignable type).
