@abakcus This is why if you don’t know math you life is only black and white

@abakcus And this : 😯

@abakcus ... need to update for SUPERCOMPLEX OPERATOR j where j*j = +1 (UNITY) ...

@abakcus Too bad it leaves out Quaternions, Octonions and the like.

@abakcus I love this

@abakcus

@abakcus I always thought it was ridiculous to play with imaginary numbers. I was very good at math though, but thought there was no practical application and I didn't want to be a math teacher.

@abakcus @dairapuga

@abakcus 👌👌

@abakcus Here's another way to expand the Reals. The list after the R is the number of dimension that square to +1, -1 and 0. So complex is R(0,1,0). Details (and history of 0, N, Z, Q and R) in this video:

@abakcus And what about hyper-reals and hyper-complex?

@abakcus 0 is not natural though

@abakcus The funny detail is when you realize YOU CAN STILL SAY ones are contained in the others...perfectly And at the same time, you can say all of them has the same cardinality

@abakcus Magic.

@abakcus Now add the q-numbers 🤗

@abakcus les nombres complexes , j'ai jamais rien compris , j'ai dû zapper quelque chose

@abakcus Needs a third dimension for quaternions :) (For computer graphics folks) Let’s ignore octonions — only string theorists use those 🤷‍♂️

@abakcus I enjoyed
