6.5 Traditional Complex Number Notation - error in description
--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OFFICE-2392
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2392
             Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: OpenFormula
    Affects Versions: ODF 1.2 Part 2 CD 2
            Reporter: Patrick Durusau


We currently say:

"Applications claiming to implement "Traditional Complex Number Notation" shall allow traditional inline notation for complex numbers, that is, "i" or "j" optionally prefixed with Number produces a type Complex."

That's incorrect. A complex type consists of a real number plus an imaginary number. 

Rather than filing a separate JIRA issue, why do we define acceptance of complex types by infix operators here? Isn't this covered by Number as a type already? 

What does the "...no required to accept the Text type as equivalent." mean? 

Most of this looks like repetition so I am deleting it until the case is made for its return.
