Re: Complex Numbers
Hi MathsisFun;
Good stuff. Maybe you could mention why they were invented in the first place, also an argand diagram.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.

Looking great! Complex numbers is one of the most fascinating topics for me.

Re: Complex Numbers
Thanks guys.
It IS fascinating, and I don't think I have shown that so far 
I intend to write more pages one day (and will include argand diagrams!) where I can hopefully show some of the neat aspects ... any suggestions?
