Include a tag called complex within the definition.

Declare three variables x1, x2 and x3 to be structures of type complex.

Assign the initial values of 1.3 and -2.2 to the members x.real and x.imaginary respectively.

(f) Define a union containing three members, each of type "dateTime", i.e. hour, minute and second.
