Hypercomplex numbers/Talk

I agree that "Unfortunate" is the right phrase. If the hypercomplexes formed a field, we'd be able to say a lot more interesting things about them. -- GWO

There is a lot of neat stuff connected with the quaternions, octonions and sedenions (see the external link in Octonions, for example). Saying that things would be more interesting if they were fields is missing the point. --Zundark, 2001 Dec 20
