Previously, I used the complex number literal compiler extension to build complex numbers as well as extract their real and imaginary parts. (e.g.
double _Complex = 2 + 1jto build the number2 + i.)This was nice because it avoided using
<complex.h>as well as C++'s<complex>. However, not all compilers support these extensions by default. (You need to use-std=gnu++20instead of-std=c++20.)This PR modifies the repo to no longer use these literals, instead relying on the C specification's guaranteed memory layout for complex numbers.
