Lesson 312: Built-in complex number types
Up to now, every time we wanted to write a data structure or class that could be used for multiple types, we used templates. In C, however, there are no templates, so there are essentially two choices:
- for built-in types, it is possible to use macros,
- while for other types, it is possible to use a data structure storing void pointer.
