So you'd use i for it? There's a proof of concept made by adria here: http://swiftscythe.blogspot.com/2011/02/how-to-work-with-complex-numbers-in.html maybe we should develop it further like he did? Well can be done like that, but note that its better to put all those calculations in a way that more students learn this topic, for example for the student that open KAlgebra it would be natural to think this: i*i and get -1 I think is important to copy or emulate the symbolism used in math classes ;) Percy Git commit fde6bdfb0114d384c1ad258fd351f4558ea63e09 by Aleix Pol. Committed on 28/10/2013 at 20:28. Pushed by apol into branch 'master'. Support roots with an imaginary part Related: bug 231816 M +7 -3 analitza/operations.cpp M +5 -3 analitza/tests/analitzatest.cpp http://commits.kde.org/analitza/fde6bdfb0114d384c1ad258fd351f4558ea63e09 Git commit cd3fbd29bd9c29a6033729b42d98bf37b3f551a7 by Aleix Pol. Committed on 29/10/2013 at 16:22. Pushed by apol into branch 'imaginary'. Considering approaches to imaginary numbers I'm unsure what approach to take though, usually imaginary numbers are represented by an expression such as a+bi and this would be stored in a separate Cn instance. This is not ideal because this means we'll have values that output an expression. M +1 -1 analitza/value.cpp M +8 -1 analitza/value.h http://commits.kde.org/analitza/cd3fbd29bd9c29a6033729b42d98bf37b3f551a7 maybe you'd like to take a look at the "imaginary" branch?

With Git commit f9bed1300be72c23a3ebc7237a8f4de91d756566 by Aleix Pol. this issue is closed. |
