It seems that the problems have something to do with the overloading of
istream operator ">>", but I just can't find the exact problem.
// the declaration
friend std::istream & operator>(std::istream & in, const Complex & a);
// the methods correspond to the friend
std::istream & operator>(std::istream & in, const Complex & a)
{
std::cout << "real: ";
in >a.real;
std::cout << "imaginary: ";
in >a.imaginary;
return in;
}
When complex0.cpp was compiled, such problem appeared:
Compiling...
complex0.cpp
D:\C++\complex\complex0.cpp(45) : error C2679: binary '>>' : no operator
defined which takes a right-hand operand of type 'const double' (or there is
no acceptable conversion)

Can anybody point out the errors with the ">>" overloading?
The overall code is as follows:

#include <iostream>

Complex operator~ () const;
friend std::istream & operator>(std::istream & in, const Complex &
a);
friend Complex operator+ (const Complex & a, const Complex & b);
friend Complex operator* (const Complex & a, const Complex & b);
friend std::ostream & operator<< (std::ostream & os, const Complex &
a);
};
#endif
