/sci/ - Science & Math

Just admit it. You can't just invent numbers that don't exist. SQRT (-1) is an illegal number so it is a huge mistake to use it. It amounts to mathematical fraud. It is in fact a shameful hoax on humanity. Those that that have such egos to think they are above mathematical law will be condemned to mediocrity. No truths can be found and no are problems are solved if one pursues the route of the imaginary, complex theoretical pseudo mathematician. PERIOD.

What the fuck is this bullshit?

Alright, give it your best shot to justify this fucking bullshit.

Why are imaginary numbers taught in high school and basic astronomical navigation not? Imaginary numbers would only be more helpful than something like astronomical navigation if the individual were to pursue a career in mathematics or physics, outside of that its virtually useless.
