def array_complex_attr(context, builder, typ, value, attr):
    """
    Given a complex array, it's memory layout is:

        R C R C R C
        ^   ^   ^

    (`R` indicates a float for the real part;
     `C` indicates a float for the imaginery part;
     the `^` indicates the start of each element)

    To get the real part, we can simply change the dtype and itemsize to that
    of the underlying float type.  The new layout is:

        R x R x R x
        ^   ^   ^

    (`x` indicates unused)

    A load operation will use the dtype to determine the number of bytes to
    load.

    To get the imaginary part, we shift the pointer by 1 float offset and
    change the dtype and itemsize.  The new layout is:

        x C x C x C
