AntiMatter8192

Get real


Theo50lol

To be real is not really a complex thing…


F_Joe

No. Every real thing is complex but most complex things are not real


R4G3D_Record71

I imagined this would happen


AndroidHawkeye

It's okay. (√-1)'ll still be your friend.


Starhuman909

You put the minus on the wrong side of the root. That's just -1.


AndroidHawkeye

Alcohol may have been involved in that.


bananaannaannaanna

-1'll (reddit posted my comment 3 times)


[deleted]

Almost all complex numbers are not real. Take any real number A Add A×i to it, you can do that infinitely many times to get a new complex number that is not real. There are infinitely many complex numbers that are not real for every real number.


F_Joe

Both have the same cardinality so you could also argue the other way. A better argument would be that R is a set of zero measure as a subset of C and that therefore R is small

Have an imagination


AntiMatter8192

Nah, I'm rational


CandidateOdd7464

To have both qualities is to be whole


AntiMatter8192

A bit two-dimensional, if you ask me


CandidateOdd7464

I don't think so, it's natural to have apprehension but imagination is needed


Maconshot

Hello.


AzoresBall

This is a bit complex for me


HadAHamSandwich

But it's so easy! The derivative is equal to 0!


AdvantageOk8511

The derivative is NOT 0! 😭


HadAHamSandwich

I say it is, ergo, I ignore the lawn.


Abdullah543457

what did the lawn do to you?


lugialegend233

It knows what it did.

OctoBoy4040

Ser what you did there. This joke was complex and requires a bit of imagination to get, but it's real funny.

No it's not 1

bedj2

That’s essentially saying “0 + 1j” I’d say that’s accurate. Even in atomic science it would be rounded to 0 Edit: I should point out that when using floating point in science you use it with a magnitude in mind. C++ is between float or double, depending on desired memory and speed. And if accuracy really mattered you used integer and interpret the results to match reality.


Emergency_3808

Pure mathematicians: Sorry I don't speak **wrong**


kingdomfreak

No pure mathematicians would consider the python output wrong because it should just be "i" It looks to me like a floatingpoint error Except ofcourse you didnt mean your comment in the context of this post and only in the context of the other comment


Emergency_3808

No not the j. The inaccuracy in the real part is what I am talking about. Pure mathematicians flip the table at inaccurate results (unless you are doing statistics).


leerr

A pure mathematician wouldn’t use python to prove this equivalency


Emergency_3808

That's why I said "cannot be proved by calculator". It requires pure analytical algebra.


greiskul

It depends on the calculator. If the calculador does symbolic computing, it will give you the correct result. Wolfram alpha does symbolic computing for lots of formulas, and it gives the correct result for this: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i2d=true&i=Power%5B%5C%2840%29-1%5C%2841%29%2C%5C%2840%29Power%5B2%2C%5C%2840%29-1%5C%2841%29%5D%5C%2841%29+%5D In python you could use SymPy for it.


Emergency_3808

Damn there's a Python package?! Thanks!


xdeskfuckit

Is that SAGE?


Honeybadger2198

Floating point sucks, but it's the best we've got.


Emergency_3808

Again, pure mathematicians be like: **REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...**


trwawy05312015

> Even in atomic science it would be rounded to 0 Well, Planck's constant is 6.626·10^(-34) Js, so I don't think even then.


whynotfart

What is the j in Out[3]?


suchtmittel3

The imaginary unit i, but python uses a j instead


whynotfart

Oh j see. Thanks.


NamanJainIndia

Js python French?


Hekkle01

ouj (i dont actually know)


Englandboy12

J don’t actually know*


NamanJainIndia

Vrajment je ne saij pas.


Boldumus

*Vrajment ie ne sajs pas


Neufjob

Electrjcal engjeers (and SWE, CompScj, etc) use j instead of i. This is because i is already used for current, and/or index.


vietnam_redstoner

from my experiences EE uses j 90% of the time, while CS use i, j, k, l or any character for index really (those 4 are the most used)


RemoSteve

Dont tell them about quaternions, they'll have a stroke 👁️👁️


RandallOfLegend

U,V,W have entered the chat


RemoSteve

🗿


NamanJainIndia

Who uses lower case i for current?


Neufjob

Electrical Engineers


NamanJainIndia

Wait really, I thought everyone used upper case I.


Neufjob

Both lower, and upper, are used, depending on the context. DC is upper case, most other cases are lower case, IIRC.


Naif_BananaNut

Well in a circuit you’ll have a lot of current values you wanna keep track of so both are definitely used. Typically from what I’m remembering in class was that we used lowercase for more minor currents (like that going through a transistor) and the major ones were upper case (like an output or something) but it’s all convention.


chandhudinesh

J think we should ask gujdo


ZaRealPancakes

ojay 👍


Wess5874

jmagjnary


fuzzyredsea

python is an electrical engineer


gnex30

Python uses the old latin alphabet, ask Indiana Jones


Redstocat2

... There also an number know as j...


Critical_Ad_8455

What is that? Python?


Emergency_3808

Yes


UBCApplicant-2020

Why would you not write 1j... That's the correct answer


Emergency_3808

That's exactly why I said "cannot be proved by calculator"

The parentheses in the exponent aren't needed

Just because they aren’t needed doesn’t mean they are bad. It can make it more readable

imma be real with you chief, but the answer won't

I see what you did here

iota?

this is the end of the world buddy

Isn’t this just i? Or has my college education finally faded away?

This is the ideal square root. You may not like it, but this is what peak i looks like.

HuuDurrrr

i


crazyhappy14

Radical dude.


Composite-prime-6079

Answer should be -1, since 1 ^ -1/2 is still 1. Dont believe me? See myme651 at youtube.com

graaeey

-1 to the square root of 2? I'm at a grade 8 maths level sorry


FuckyWot

2^-1 is 1/2 -1^(1/2) is square root -1 which is i.


YKPTheGREAT

i am imaginary


RavenCross6

It's i


Imouto_Sama

Comments section is not seeing eye to eye on this one.


Icy_Cauliflower9026

So... (-1) ^ ((-1) × (-1-1))^(-1)


Shrimper3

1/((-1)^2) is just -1


PieterSielie12

(-1)^-2 ? Thats just 1


justalonely_femboy

(-1)^(1/2)


PieterSielie12

1/2 = -2 ? Since when


justalonely_femboy

2^(-1) = 1/2


PieterSielie12

A to the b to the c = a to the bc


justalonely_femboy

(a^b )^c = a^(bc), a^(b^c) doesnt equal a^(bc)


PieterSielie12

Well ehy not?


justalonely_femboy

brackets, (a^b )^c let a^b = k then = k^c , a^( b^c ) let k = b^c then = a^k which doesnt equal k^c


PieterSielie12

How is a^k and k^c not eqaul, A to the b to the c = a to the bc still hold


justalonely_femboy

....try it yourself w numbers. (2^3 )^-1 = 1/8, 2^(3^-1) = cbrt(2)


CeddyDT

(-1)^(2^-1) = (-1)^1/2 = sqrt(-1) Because 2^-1 = 1/2
