To anyone confused, watch this video. It is a graphical representation of e^(pi)(i). Imagine, then, graphing it with half of pi instead. It would result in a 90 degree rotation instead of 180 degrees. And what is 8 rotated 90 degrees? An infinity symbol.
I’m by no means a mathologist or anything but I’m calling bullshit. Something times 8 is infinity? C’mon
e^(i pi/2) rotates a point 90 deg around the unit circle. The joke is that it simply rotated 8 by 90 degrees.
Sometimes, humans should not be allowed to play with numbers. This is one of those times.
The joke is that 8 lying down (ie, rotated by 90°) is ∞
