: At least the comment on the wchar_t array is correct: It's indeed not sure that it is UTF16; on Linux e.g. it's typically UCS4 aka UTF32. Of course the standard doesn't guarantee that it's even Unicode; I don't know if there's any implementation which doesn't use Unicode here, though.
: BTW, if you want guaranteed integer sizes, then you can use C99's int8_t etc.; AFAIK there's no equivalent for floating point. --[[User:Ce|Ce]] 09:06, 26 February 2007 (EST)
::I reverted the task to its most recent version with the previous description. It pains me to see all that work thrown away, but the task became too specific and, as you folks pointed out, inaccurate. I'm going to block the IP of the offending user until I can get in touch with him. --[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 10:46, 26 February 2007 (EST)
== New page name ==
Unfortunately the new name is as ambiguous as the old. My first thought when I read "complex data type" is "a type which models complex numbers." --[[User:Ce|Ce]] 19:26, 26 February 2007 (EST)
