Constructivism (mathematics) | Real numbers
In mathematics, there are several equivalent ways of defining the real numbers. One of them is that they form a complete ordered field that does not contain any smaller complete ordered field. Such a definition does not prove that such a complete ordered field exists, and the existence proof consists of constructing a mathematical structure that satisfies the definition. The article presents several such constructions. They are equivalent in the sense that, given the result of any two such constructions, there is a unique isomorphism of ordered field between them. This results from the above definition and is independent of particular constructions. These isomorphisms allow identifying the results of the constructions, and, in practice, to forget which construction has been chosen. (Wikipedia).
Construction of the rational numbers In this video, I construct the rational numbers starting from the integers, using equivalence relation and equivalence classes. After this video, you can finally understand what 1/2 really means! Enjoy! Check out my Real Numbers Playlist: https://www.

Construction of Natural Numbers In this, I rigorously define the concept of a natural number, using Peano's axioms. I also explain why those axioms are the basis for the principle of mathematical induction. Enjoy! Check out my Real Numbers Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=

Ordered Fields In this video, I define the notion of an order (or inequality) and then define the concept of an ordered field, and use this to give a definition of R using axioms. Actual Construction of R (with cuts): https://youtu.be/ZWRnZhYv0G0 COOL Construction of R (with sequences)

The usual story of complex numbers needs to be strengthened and enlarged for the 21st century! Supposing that the complex numbers are a quadratic field extension of the "real numbers" is clearly inadequate, as the arithmetic of "real numbers" is mostly absent, and essentially vacuous. Noti
