Subject: [PATCH] Here is a bug fix and some spelling changes for the complex
 number tutorial code. I have also written a complete complex number package
 based on this tutorial; I will submit this as a contribution soon. Is there a
 particular format for contributed tar files? I have a C source file, two SQL
 files, and a Makefile.
