Congrats, your girlfriend is imaginary.

This meme become even better
Is this an I, or a hint that her feelings are complex?
Imaginary feelings
She misses the imaginary root.
Complex relationship
j miss you :^)
Maths, not engineering!
i will always be current. j will always be the square root of -1. Nothing will ever override this in my brain
J is the current density!
Capital J is current density, lowercase j is √1
I don’t remember nearly enough science stuff to get most of the jokes here. Oh well.
If I'm not wrong, I think the square root of minus 1 is an imaginary number which is represented by i
Don't ask me anymore questions about this if you want real answers because I genuinely don't know any more.
Yep, sqrt(-1) = i. Powers of i are actually really neat imo since they form a loop:
i^0 = 1
i^1 = i
i^2 = -1
i^3 (or i^2 x i or -1 x i) = -i
Now the loop starts:
i^4 = i^2 x i^2 = 1 x 1 = 1
i^5 = i^4 x i^1 = 1 x i = i
etc
Any evaluation of i to the power k boils down to i^(k%4). For example, i^726 = i^2 = -1. I know this was super useful in calc 1 or 2 and not used for any of my other math classes, it's just a fun concept to me
Powers of (1/√2 + i/√2) form a nice loop as well :)
Okay, that’s a deal. And thanks!
this guy and his imaginary girlfriend. He sure has a complex relationship
She really did miss him with that one.
It's not even capital i
Maybe
∫~0~^M^ r^2^ dM
Would work better?
Well ackshuwally uppercase I denotes the identity matrix :P
Imaginary girlfriend lmao
Kept reading that as iota. "I ought to" miss you
As my math teacher said:
Ich ziehe meine Wurzel aus einer Unbekannten.
Sorry, I don't think this works when translated.
I pull up the root of an unknown.
Meaning a: I take the root of a variable
Meaning b: I pull my "root" out of an unkown woman
Ich kenn den anders. Wahre Mathematik ist es, wenn man schon morgens seine Wurzel aus einer Unbekannten zieht xD
U R my number -e^iπ^
In my humble opinion e^iτ^ is a lot prettier
I don't really like this syntax. √ should be used on positive reals only
That's my take, change my mind
Math Miss You
