More information and resources: http://www.welchlabs.com
Imaginary numbers are not some wild invention, they are the deep and natural result of extending our number system. Imaginary numbers are all about the discovery of numbers existing not in one dimension along the number line, but in full two dimensional space. Accepting this not only gives us more rich and complete mathematics, but also unlocks a ridiculous amount of very real, very tangible problems in science and engineering.

Part 3: Cardans Problem
Part 4: Bombellis Solution

In this series, well explore the complex landscape of machine learning and artificial intelligence through one example from the field of computer vision: using a decision tree to count the number of fingers in an image. Its gonna be crazy.

Nice History of Euler’s Formula

Euler’s Amazing 1747 Paper
Euler, Leonard. *Sur les logarithmes des nombres négatifs et imaginaires”* Written in 1747, but not published until 1862. Euler did publish a similar paper in 1749. See Cajori #3 above.
English Translation: https://scholarlycommons.pacific.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?filename=0&article=1806&context=euler-works&type=additional
Note on Benroulli’s area of sectors
Euler’s counterexample using Bernoulli’s sector area comes in a couple flavors. The one presented in his 1747 paper Sur les logarithmes des nombres négatifs et imaginaires” is a bit different than an earlier example in a letter to Bernoulli. I chose the earlier example for clarity. See Cajori vol 2 and Sandifer.
