psi20 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 How do those work? Like 2 to the 2i power and stuff like that. And why does it work that way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 can you word that alittle better for me, you mean 2^2(sqrt(-1))? how much do you know in complex numbers? do you now "de moivres" theorm? conjugates etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt grime Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 they are defined as x^y = exp{ylogx} this works for all real positive x, and can be extended with some care to all (non-zero) x. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psi20 Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 Like 2^i , what's that? I know about DeMoivre's Theorem and conjugates. What's the exp in exp{ylogx} mean? What's it do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 exp is the exponential function - (e^log(x)) = x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
