0^(a+bi) |
2020-12-03 |
|
Douglas pose la question : I realize raising 0^a = 0 if a>0 and undefined if a<=0.
If have read that 0^bi is undefined for all b.
What I don't understand is why 0^(a+bi) = 0 if a and b are not equal to zero.
Is this purely by definition or is there a logical reason why this is the case?
(I have taken Complex Analysis, so have a fairly good understanding of complex numbers.) Penny Nom lui répond. |

Gonzalo pose la question : This is not precisely a maths question, but it is formulated based on my maths curiosity. Fidgetting with my new graphic calculator, I started graphing things and had the idea to graph $y=(-2)^x.$
The result surprised me, and I thought a little bit about it, stored it on the back of my brain, and promised myself to look deeper into it someday. Harley Weston lui répond. |

Complex numbers |

Dylan pose la question : My problem is to prove:
|z|^2 = zz* Where z is the complex number x + iy and z* is it's complex conjugate x - iy.
If the absolute value of i is 1, then it looks like: |z|^2 = |x+y| |x+y| = x^2 + 2xy + y^2
And zz* = x^2 + y^2. for these to be equal, 2xy = 0. This seems wrong to me. What am I doing wrong? Penny Nom lui répond. |

A new way to measure randomness |
2003-12-31 |
|
Stephanie pose la question :
Last year, I did a science project in which I asked, "Which shuffles better, an automatic card shuffler or shuffling by hand?" To measure this I decided the "best" shuffler was the one to become random first. Last year, to measure randomness, I numbered cards 1-52 and had the subjects shuffle them until they broke up the rising sequences or reached 10 shuffles. (Usually 10 shuffles came first...) Anyway, I did the same thing with the automatic card shuffler, and, as hypothesized, the automatic card shuffler randomized the deck first.
This year, I have decided to continue the project. The problem is, I need a new way to measure randomness without the use of fancy computers or something. I have searched the Internet, I have posted my query on websites based on math, and I have searched the local library.
I have found many useful things on the Internet, but none of them can tell me a new way to measure randomness. I cannot do a perfect shuffle, and I am not terribly gifted in the art of using computers. If you have any information (anything will help) or advice, I would be greatly obliged.
