Gaussian integer quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Gaussian integer card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
However, Gaussian integers do not have a total order that respects ______.
Answer
arithmetic. However, Gaussian integers do not have a total order that respects arithmetic. From the Gaussian integer article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
Gaussian integer. Gaussian integer 72 · Laser cutting 69 · Taha Hussein 66 · Khichdi 62 ATK in WikiCards.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The Gaussian integers, with ordinary addition and multiplication of complex numbers, form an integral domain, usually written as Z [ i ] or Z [ i ]. Gaussian integers share many properties with integers: they form a Euclidean domain, and thus have a Euclidean division and a Euclidean algorithm, this implies unique factorization and many related properties.
- However, Gaussian integers do not have a total order that respects arithmetic.
- Gaussian integers are algebraic integers and form the simplest ring of quadratic integers.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Gaussian integer article was read about 37,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 72 and blocks with 50: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
How to get Gaussian integer
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
