Very good job !

The basic operators on the complexes is much more elaborate than mine. I
use simple macros. This makes the definitions a little more difficult to
work out. For example, for f(z) = z + 1/z, I have to write
complexAdd(cc,complexInverse(cc)).

The really interesting part is the use of isosurfaces. Good job. I just
used colored triangles which give me a {} mesh. The coloring model is
also very clever because the hue and luminosity depend on the value of
the function.

I will see how to add the same coloring scheme as you.

Here, one sample of f(z) = (-z^3 + iz^2 + 1) / (z - 1 + i)^2.
