Posted in reply to dennis luehring | In other words, this:
c = (6 + 2i - 1 + 3i) / 3i;
Is so many levels better than:
c = (complex!(double)(6,2) + complex!(double)(-1,3)) / complex!(double)(0,3);
That there can't even be any sort of contest between them. The first is simply, inarguably, better. Or, at least, that's what it says. I tend to agree.

If the placement of the '?' on the start of the line confused you, think about it like this:
------
Isn't:
c = (6 + 2i - 1 + 3i) / 3i;
far preferable than writing:
c = (complex!(double)(6,2) + complex!(double)(-1,3)) / complex!(double)(0,3);
? It's no contest
----
it's basically saying:
-----
Isn't X far preferable than writing Y ? It's no contest
