Actually, I'm not too happy with "ireal" or "creal" either. I'd prefer
"imaginary" and "complex".

...but back on topic...

anyone coming from a C/C++ background (or, for that matter, PHP), will
expect the word "define" to do this job.

C/C++
    #define x 3

PHP
    define("x",3);

D?
    define x = 3;
