Re: Has anyone made a real conlang?

I first encountered complex numbers at 16 doing A level Maths and
Further Maths in England. Surely last year of High School is 17/18? BTW,
I may be wrong but doesn't the french school teaching of Mathematics
focus on geometry rather than algebra. I read that somewhere without
explanation, I would love to read a detailed description of how French
and English schools teach maths for comparison.
