Table of Contents - 5. REAL AND COMPLEX NUMBERS

This section derives the basics of real and complex numbers. We first construct and axiomatize real and complex numbers (e.g., ax-resscn). After that, we derive their basic properties, various operations like addition (df-add) and sine (df-sin), and subsets such as the integers (df-z) and natural numbers (df-nn).
