In this chapter we investigate complex numbers and show how they can be thought of as an ordered pair. We also show how they are represented by a matrix. Many of the qualities associated with quaternions are found in complex numbers, which is why they are worthy of close examination.

摘要

In this chapter we investigate complex numbers and show how they can be thought of as an ordered pair. We also show how they are represented by a matrix. Many of the qualities associated with quaternions are found in complex numbers, which is why they are worthy of close examination. Readers interested in this subject may want to examine the author’s book Imaginary Mathematics for Computer Science.
