**TL;DR: no heuristics in a library, please!** I know this is an old issue (and a tough one), but I thought it might be interesting to share my experience with...
Hi! I would like to ask how this issue is progressing. I am interested in having complex infinity fixed in the library. After all this is a Complex library so...
Unfortunately I currently (and for quite a while) do not have the time to understand the code and test it. What I can do is write down what I consider...
I see what you mean. Unfortunately, it is impossible to extend the complex plane with a single complex infinity in such a way that it is mathematically reasonable ("correct") and...
btw javascript has some mathematically incorrect behavior as well, so maybe it is not a great idea to follow it. example: `Math.pow(-2,Infinity)`, which yields `Infinity`. This is incorrect. On the...
This does not mean of course that the javascript behavior for `1 / 0` yielding `Infinity` is incorrect. It is correct _on the real number line_. But since Complex.js models...
I see. Looks kind of silly, based on these it seems MATLAB models 8 selected directions on the complex plane (i∞, (1+i)∞, 1∞, (1-i)∞, (-i)∞, (-1-i)∞, (-1)∞, (-1+i)∞ ) which...
Nevertheless I have to give credit to the argument that it is a nice feature to have that things like `1/0` can be computed without an underlying assumption of the...
indeterminate. (no value, NaN, whatever. same as 0 / 0)
