Graphs for Real, Complex, Quaternions, and Hypercomplex Numbers

[ftlqed]

Where are pipes that small? Don't you just multiply the rotation on the wrong angle by another spherical equation? Like it says to use sine waves, but nature would do it the stupid way.

Holy crap that @Subspace4d person seems like a right douche bag.

[sweetser]

@bikutorusan Such things happen on YouTube, water under the bridge.

[bikutorusan]

@sweetser They sure do, my friend, they sure do. It's a sad thing that people can't approach a fellow human being with a kind initial attitude rather than a snarky and arrogant one. Take care, Fellow Person!

I guess you have no idea what quaternions are. Your explanaitions are crossing the edgeds but never touch the inside.

[sweetser]

Thank you for a cryptic critique. Quaternions are used by game designers and rocket scientists to do 1 job: 3D rotations. There are books and software devoted to this task. It is funny that a 4D tool is needed to do a 3D job.

Hypercomplex numbers are a math novelty. They are not widely used.

Your user name suggests you know what 4D means. We will have to disagree on this since I think it means 3 spatial dimensions plus one for time. So it goes.

[Subspace4d]

In fact we have 8 dimensions. We have 4 normal space dimensions and 4 complex dimensions :)

You dont know what I am going to present to the world soon.

[sweetser]

Sounds more like speculation, which you are free to do.

Time is not like the 3 space dimensions. The video shows a real dimension for time, and the imaginary axes for space, which makes up 3 complex numbers total that are pairs of real numbers with imaginary numbers.

If I could know what you are going to do, and how to pick lottery ticket numbers, I would be a wealthy man. Good luck.

Have you ever studied Physics?

Do you know the theories of Burkhard Heim?

[sweetser]

Yup. I live in Boston and was able to audit graduate physics classes at MIT and Harvard. I am unfamiliar with the work of Burkhard Heim. I did read the wikipedia page, but that does not make one an expert. Looks like there are a few web sites devoted to his work. For now, I will focus on getting my own work in a peer-review journal. Good luck.

Neat stuff

[flips300021]

Very well put sir, albeit in a sexual way...All the same if humour grabs ones attention towards an education, damn fine! Hat fine and tipped sir :)

[Blindastronomer]

Just a bit difficult to model using pipe cleaners, yes. >>

thanks for the video. i enjoyed watching it.
