At the moment, I don't need to calculate with complex numbers, but a
library for dealing with them will IMO be a valuable supplement to
Euphoria.

Some time ago, I wrote a .dll file in another language, containing
numerous date- and time-functions, including calculating Easter,
Advent, and more. Now I just have to translate the functions from Basic
to Euphoria.

Good work, also containing interesting historical information!

I agree. 
... or maybe it's just because we live under the same sun, and have the
same calendar. 
Of course things become more complicated, if we begin to deal with
different calendars. I did not write routines for that purpose myself,
but here is a web site that I find interesting:
