Thanks for that. The most relevant article which I am guessing Walter used as the basis of his cfloat and ifloat types is that by William Kahan and J.W. Thomas from 1991 which was titled "Augmenting a Programming Language with Complex Arithmetic". See Arithmazium.Org:

I would love to find what Walter posted when he implemented those types in D and any documentation from the usage of those types. Thanks in advance.
