Faffing about with complex numbers again

Integers have these things called complex conjugates. This is something I have just been learning about. Or not. You’ll soon see my mathematical shortcomings. This thing is, I think, a way to express them as complex numbers. (I think that was the takeaway of the videos I just watched). I’d […]
