The way Patreon works is that it only supports ongoing donations, and not one time payments. But, there is the option of canceling the ongoing donations at any time, so if someone wants to only make a one time payment, one possibility is signing up and then canceling after the first month's payment is made. It's up to you if you want to do it this way, but in any case, as I said, I really appreciate your interest supporting my channel, and I am glad that you like my videos. Thanks.

    I really hope we look back on these videos in 50 years as the start of an educational revolution. Education all the way from K-12 to university is nothing but a cash cow for adults that don't give a damn about their students. Free access, repeatable, archived, and in an ideal world you get paid more the better job you do. Contrast that to even small non-doctoral schools whose admins are pushing teachers to get NSF/DOD grants because they get to suck up half of the award. Somehow they have to do that and teach 4.5 classes a semester. The students aren't the ones winning in that system

    • @JaySmith91
      @JaySmith91 6 років тому +25

      Though to get there, the creator did gloss over the origin of the rules of multiplying complex numbers, thus this might be an example of circular reasoning.
      You would normally start from the definition of i^2 = -1 to show that products of 2 imaginary numbers is the same as multiplying the magnitude and adding the phase angle. 1·i = 90 degrees rotations then pops out from that.

    • @Red-Brick-Dream

    • @MofoMan2000
      @MofoMan2000 5 років тому +7

      i is defined simply as the square root of -1. So multiplying it by itself (i²) gives -1, just like squaring the square root of 9 would give you 9.

    6:25 Usuallly, the length of a complex number is called the _magnitude_ of it (as you said), however its angle is called the _argument_ of it. When dealing with signals (as in AC circuits), the magnitude is then usually called as the _amplitude_ of the signal, and the angle is then called the _phase_ of the signal.
    This is not a mistake you made ;) I'm just saying this so people can have a better vocabulary.

Meaning, they transform one coordinate system to another coordinate system or transforming a shape to another shape. For example a line into a circle.

      But they are not what Y or Z axes to the X axis. They are something different, for example in Einstein's theory they appear only to represent time, what makes sense (sorta). What do these numbers represent in reality other than just abstract numbers, because if they do not represent something, I fail to see what practical application they may have "in physics and engineering" (quoting the end of the video).
      It's not the name what matters, it's not that they are based on i=sqr(-1), it's what they represent in real terms (like negatives can represent debt or opposite pottential or just the left side of an arbitrary determined mapping axis), what are imaginaries useful for? What do they represent for example in Schrödinger's equation?

    tfw you realize you can represent any two dimensional plane with 1 axis and colors
    and you wonder what it would look like if: you represent 4 dimensions with 2 axis and colors and "negative" colors,
    you represent complex numbers and its operations by a single axis and colors,
    you represent quarternions in this way...........
    or even if all videos can actually be representented in numbers in this way................
    so many possibilities!

    We can see and touch real numbers??
    I am not so sure I would make the claim that you can see, touch or use any other sense to divine what a number really is or why it is so useful to us. Numbers are constructs of our mind and it is their relationships between one another that can tell us a lot about the world. Numbers on their own have no substance. Even in the Platonic sense, numbers are somewhere out beyond the realm of what we would consider our own reality. I think we can definitely say that numbers have a certain kind of reality to them, but I really think that is the best we can say about them.
    I obviously understood your meaning from the opening monologue, but I wanted to say that I would argue the point based on the sheer fact that our minds are the only things we can depend on to give a us a sense of the world around us. This ability is flawed, as countless scientists have shown, and therefore the best we can say about the reality of numbers is that they are useful and we can develop a language based on these "things"..

    • @EugeneKhutoryansky
      @EugeneKhutoryansky  8 років тому +7

      +Mark G, even if it turns out that positive real numbers are not really real, this actually would not change the point that imaginary numbers are "just as real" as positive real numbers. That is, they would still be lumped together into the same category.

  • @709zzy

    so "i" is half a flip in direction of a vector. Then what is 1/3 of a flip?

    • @709zzy
      @709zzy 7 років тому +1

      I guess it would be adding the vector by a vector in the complex plane. But what does x times y mean on a xy plane?

    • @JavaScripting64
      @JavaScripting64 6 років тому +4

      A one third flip in magnitude-angle form would be 1 angle(pi/3)
      In A + Bi form this would be 1*cos(pi/3) + 1*sin(pi/3)*I
      In the x-y plane, multiplying a vector by another vector can mean either taking the dot product or the cross product, both of which are different than multiplication in the imaginary plane.

      Mandelbrot and alike are color maps of the complex plane. Functions like Y = cos X or Y = e^X are 4D beasts in C^2 or R^4 space. It's a matter of viewing them in 3D or 2D. There are cool ways however to do so, making one realise and visualise e.g. the complex "identity" of circle and hyperbola, or, of goniometric and hyperbolic functions.

  • @jantumo1425
    @jantumo1425 8 років тому +8

    I hate how this video states that the real numbers are the only numbers you can "touch and see", you cannot touch or see any numbers. Numbers are purely an abstraction and no number is more "real" than another.

    • @pronounjow
      @pronounjow 8 років тому +12

      They mean that you can touch and see something like 5 apples, but not 0 apples, -5 apples, or 5i apples. The quantity, not the number itself.

    • @-_Nuke_-

      you touch the apples not the numbers, yes the statement was just plainly wrong every number is equally "real" and equally "imaginary"

    • @MultiOmps
      @MultiOmps 6 років тому

      Well I can't give you 5i apples can I? But I can give you 2 apples, or you can look at a bench and see 0 apples. Negative numbers are real in the case of bank balances or trade accounts as well as vectors in Physics. If you have $0 and you withdraw $100 then you have $-100 owing.
      However in the more physical world, negative is simply a direction that is 180 degrees from your original path (which is considered positive). Even transcendental numbers are real in nature and their decimal points never terminate such as e or pi.
      Even irrational numbers can exist for example, the golden ratio observed in nature or if you have a square tile that has an area of 2cm^2 then each side would be sqrt(2) long.
      But with imaginary or complex numbers where Im(z) ≠ 0 it is impossible to quantify this in the real world. Like I said no one can give you $i, this is impossible! But I can give you $5 (this makes i imaginary and 5 a real number). That's why real numbers are any numbers that are integers, fractions, irrational numbers or transcendental numbers (such as pi). Basically any complex number where Im(z) = 0.

    • @-_Nuke_-
      @-_Nuke_- 6 років тому +2

      Yes you can give me 5i apples.
      If 5 is the quantity and 5i is the quality, 5i apples means 5 times better than 1i apples.
      If you give me 5+5i apples, then that means that you gave me 5 apples of 5 quality (as opposed to 1 quality)
      5i is just the number 5 existing on a new axes at right angles with the one that 5 lives on.
      You can give 5i any meaning you like...
