Are the any standards (IEEE, ANSI or other) for complex number libraries in C? Anything under development? I'm just curious - I've done a short package in C which works fine, but I would like to make it easy to port the code to other machines which may have local super duper fast routines. I'd rather comply now than later - I'm just that type I guess :-). Mike

AS I recall, Mr. Mason knows more about this than myself.
