Abstract :
Clifford Algebra is also known as multi-vector calculus, it has more advantages than the usual mathematical tools like vector, tensor, spinor and exterior differential form. This text introduces the basic knowledge and complex number property of Clifford algebra from the two-dimensional geometric space to the three-dimensional geometric space, showing the superiority of Clifford algebra and reflecting the complex number property of geometric space which was composed of dots, lines, planes and solids.
