Specs have been added for this but I did not find an issue for it so I report it here.

Example:

assert_equals('2e3+2e4i'.to_c, Complex(2e3, 2e4))

Sorry, I misunderstood that this issue is about Complex, so I assigned this to tadayoshi.
But, correctly, this is about String.
I assign this to matz again.

Go ahead and merge it, if my decision is important.

Thanks for accepting my patch! :) I'm a bit of a beginner with C, I
plan on submitting patches to bugs I find every now and then. Please
let me know if you have any tips or comments about my code.

To Funaba-san: I saw you replaced my calls to strchr with strpbrk
that's awesome I didn't know that function existed. I also saw you
removed a single line of comment. Are single line comment 'hints'
frowned upon in Ruby? Do they give too much attention to the utter
lack of comments around it? :P

Thank you!
Tinco
