<p><b>Discussion:</b></p>

<p><b>Addresses FR 35</b></p>

<p><b>Description</b></p>
        <p>Instantiations of the class
        template <code>complex&lt;&gt;</code> have to be allowed for integral
        types, to reflect existing practice and ISO standards
        (LIA-III).</p>
        
<p><b>Suggestion</b></p>

<p><i>[
2009-10-26 Proposed wording in <a href="https://wg21.link/n3002.pdf">N3002</a>.
]</i></p>


<p><i>[
2010 Pittsburgh:
]</i></p>


<blockquote><p>
Moved to NAD Future. Rationale added.
</p></blockquote>

<p><i>[LEWG Kona 2017]</i></p>

<p>Recommend SG6</p>

<p><i>[2017-03-03, Kona]</i></p>

<p>
SG6 suggests this issue is a new feature, not a problem with the existing
standard, and should therefore be closed NAD. However, SG6 invites papers that bring
the proposal up to date with the current standard.
</p>


<p><b>Rationale:</b></p>
<p>
There is no consensus for making this change at this time.
</p>


<p id="res-1154"><b>Proposed resolution:</b></p><p>
Adopt <a href="https://wg21.link/n3002.pdf">N3002</a>.
