More than 50 years ago when I was studying to become an electrical engineer,
I came across complex numbers, which were used to represent out-of-phase voltages
and currents using the j operator. I believe that the letter j was used, rather
than i, because the latter stood for electrical current. So from the very start of my
studies I...
