_aAnnotation _bComplex numbers have such widespread practical use. This title tells the 2000-year-old history of one of mathematics' most elusive numbers, the square root of minus one, also known as i. It offers an account of mathematical discussions, and the application of complex numbers and functions to important problems. |
