@ -102,7 +102,7 @@ There are different types of numbers, in mathematics we classify them into [sets
|
|||
|
||||
- **all**: Anything conceivable as a number, even by stretch. E.g. [zero](zero.md), minus [infinity](infinity.md) or aleph one.
|
||||
- **[transfinite numbers](transfinite_number.md)**: Numbers that are in a sense "infinite", used to compare objects that are infinite in size (e.g. number sets themselves). E.g. omega, omega plus ten or aleph one.
|
||||
- **Qp: [p-adic numbers](p_adic_number.md)**: Another way of generalizing rational numbers, they may (a bit mindblowingly) have infinitely many digits to the left (for which they are sometimes called *leftist numbers*). E.g. (10-adic) ...333.33, ...87187, ...11112 etc.

- **Qp: [p-adic numbers](p_adic_number.md)**: Alternative way of generalizing rational numbers; p-adics are quite mindblowing as they may have infinitely many digits to the left side (for which they are sometimes called *leftist numbers*), there are numbers that are their own squares without either being 1 or 0, they also contain negative numbers and fractions without having to add extra symbols. There are different kinds of p-adic number sets for different *p*s, e.g. 10-adic, 3-adic and so on (prime number *p*s are chosen for good properties). E.g. (10-adic) ...333.33, ...87187, ...11112 etc.
|
||||
- **H: [quaternions](quaternion.md)**: A sum of real number, imaginary number and two other kinds of numbers, forming a number in four dimensional space. E.g. 1 + i + j - k, 50 - 0.6k or 2i + 7j.
|
||||
- **C: [complex](complex_number.md)**: A sum of real and imaginary number, forming a number in two dimensional plane. E.g. 3 + 2i, 0.5 - 13i or 100i.
|
||||
- **[algebraic](algebraic_number.md)**: Are roots of one variable [polynomials](polynomial.md) with integer coefficients. E.g. 4/3, the [golden ratio](golden_ratio.md) or square root of two.
