Talk:Euler's identity

This is going to be a hard one to simplify. Natural logs? That just about needs calculus for sure. complex numbers? Trigonometry in the complex plane? Argand diagrams? Holy cow. I will think about it but I think it is a tall tall order. --Filll 04:49, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Good luck. I read through it and still have no clue what the equation is even for.. Tall order indeed. -- Creol 05:22, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Well, you either have to say too little or too much. There's really no point in having a "complex" tag on the article because the topic presupposes an advanced understanding of trigonometry and mathematical analysis. Macdonald-ross (talk) 09:08, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

At this stage, I have the feeling that I really need a diagram like the one used in the English-language Wikipedia articles on the subject: A circle in the complex plane showing the real axis being cosine of e^z and the imaginary axis being cosine of e^z. But I don't have the slightest idea about how to do that. My contributions to Wikis have all been plain text. I think that that is what make sense of it to me when I was a callow youth, before I had any understanding of calculus. That can make sense, I think, of the simple derivation given in the article.

Not suitable for this wiki.

We shouldn't have pages which we cannot adequately simplify. Macdonald-ross (talk) 09:51, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
