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. Then define a structure of type "calendarDate" containing three integer members , called day, month and year respectively. Declare a variable "date1" of type "calendarDate".
