The Octonion Math That Could Underpin Physics
A layman's quest to understand wtf this is...<p>>In mathematics, the octonions are a normed division algebra over the real numbers .<p>wtf is a normed division algebra??<p>>In mathematics, Hurwitz's theorem is a theorem [...] solving the Hurwitz problem for finite-dimensional unital real non-associative algebras endowed with a positive-definite quadratic form.<p>... right.<p>I have the same problem when I try to understand anything statistics related, I get hit by a barrage of unknown words 
and my brain just melts.<p>Is there any place that explains mathematical concepts in ... different ways?
