Then you don't need to pair anything. Perhaps we could introduce > real_t as a type, just like numeric and floating. So I guess > special-casing complex sounds fine with me.
Special-casing for complex sounds ugly to me; "complex float" is a type name in the same way as "long int" is, and writing "real_t complex" feels a bit like writing "int_t long". But of course, if this feature is really only needed for declaring complex variants of real types, then how it is done doesn't matter so much. But, IMHO, such a special casing would be a somewhat weird language feature. -- Pauli Virtanen _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
