It’s an imaginary number yes?

"i" is yes

i = Square-root(**-1**)?

yessir

Ah, looks like my curiosity on learning scrödingers equation paid off a bit

Though I’ve forgotten a bit about it

-^-

I like to learn hard stuff for fun and to know more, pretty much like learning.

same here

Also, what’s j and k, are those like a unit of coordinates?

i hated math in grade school but once i hit grade 11 it was amazing

theyre planes in a sence

think on how you have the real number line such as "1, 2, 3

Mhm

the you have the complex plain which is perpendicular to the reals

these are all multiplied by i

they are a real number multiplied by the imaginary "i" so "i 2i, 3i, " so on

these are 2D numbers

Ohhh

Looking at it graphically as you’re saying that, makes more sense now

then when you get to j its another plane 3D numbers or x + yi +zj

precisely that yes

And then the reals are also multiplied by k?

this is where is gets philosophical

Ah

Philosophical in what sense?

so i just said that i s perpendicular to the reals right

Mhm

and j is perpendicular to that like a 3D plane

so k is perpendicular to those aswell

And thus becomes 4D?

i, j, and k are all perpendicular to the real number line

but yet i,j,k are perpendicular to eachother

and the reals are the origin point

yes

if you watch through that video it will do a better job explaining it than i could

1. because you can see it

and 2. im no mathematician

Fair enough lol, but taking it from a basic level like a 10 year old learning something is useful.

yeah i think they interesting, ive though of going into math in college but i dont know if i could handle it

i hope i didnt hurt your head too much lmao
