cbug2.c:
#include <complex.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void){
unsigned int x = 7;
unsigned int y = 9;

long double complex z = x * 0.02l + (-2.0l) + I * (y * 0.02l + (-2.0l));

printf("%g + I * (%g)", (double) creall(z), (double) cimagl(z));
return 0;
}

dmc cbug2.c -o & cbug2
-2 + I * (-1.82)

dmc cbug2.c & cbug2
-1.86 + I * (-1.82)

This is the second bug (which I report) involving complex numbers that ruined my computations!

The first bug was reported on Feb. 3, 2006 in post titled "Complex type bug".

Do you plan to fix the complex arithmetic of DMC?

Yes, I've fixed several complex arithmetic bugs. Have you tried the latest beta?
