This is really OT but IIRC, std::set<T> is actually
std::set< T, std::less<T> >

So make your own less_complex() function (for example, use
lexicographic order), std::set<complex, less_complex> should give you
a set of complex numbers (sorry if some syntax is incorrect I haven't
done any C++ for a while :)
