    Imaginary Numbers - For the Mathematicians...

    ...and Dreamers amongst us.

    How to calculate an Imaginary Number, call it I.

    1) State your real age, A;

    2) Subtract from that an arbitrarily fanciful number of years, Fy;

    3) The number you have left is Imaginary!

    That is:

    I = A - Fy

    Have you tried to solve any other number puzzles, like:
    Why do we sometimes feel much older than we are

    Anyone else know of any?
    CC, Image editing OK.

    I suppose that simplified hypothesis may be controversial
    A more text-book treatise may be had here:
