Panther Takahiro Ogata explains difficult mathematical problems in a very serious manner in "Mathematics without Laughing". The theme is "imaginary numbers." The mystery of the mysterious number that "becomes minus when squared." Is an imaginary number an "impossible number"? For mathematicians, who believed that any number could be squared to become a positive number, the "imaginary number" was a number that they could not accept. However, through the persistence of geniuses, imaginary numbers were revealed to be not "imaginary numbers" but incredibly important numbers that are indispensable to this world. This is the spectacular story of how mankind has accepted various numbers throughout history, starting with the natural numbers, then the irrational numbers, and finally zero, leading up to the discovery of imaginary numbers.
