Description

[numeric.requirements]:

[Example 1 : It is valid to instantiate valarray<complex>, but operator>() will not be successfully instantiated for
valarray<complex> operands, since complex does not have any ordering operators. — end example]

What is valarray<complex>? What is complex?

Referring to operator>() with parentheses is wrong too, there's no such function signature, and that's not a valid function call expression.

Research direction

Search the draft source for the [numeric.requirements] section and the quoted valarray example. Check the surrounding terminology and the reference to operator>(). Done means revising the example so valarray and complex are identified clearly and the operator reference does not imply a nonexistent function signature.
