 '''Chris:'''


 Surely many of these things are functions with arguments, not just
 representations or those highly unmathematical creatures,
 'constructors'?

 ---------------

 Also some of these names should contain the word 'complex' since
 things like 'arg' and 'conjugate' have many unrelated meanings.

 ---------------

 There are many mystical assumptions about a plane (described as
 complex) behind all this. Please can we have some background on this
 geometry or stick to algebraic descriptions?

 ---------------

 Does \theta have a range?

 Also 'the argument' (needs a range) or 'an argument'?

 This is less of a problem that you might think with your cMathML2 hat
 one. Names in MathML3 and OM are pairs of the CD name and the symbol
 name. Therefore all of them have "complex1" in the name automatically.
