In the 17th century, the mathematician and philosopher Descartes introduced coordinates, which allow us to represent different figures with equations. When we think of them in terms of complex numbers, a more beautiful world opens up. Figures that can be represented by equations sometimes have a point, like a black hole in space, called a singular point. Let's explore such singular points and their surroundings.
