In mathematics, a complex line is a one-dimensional affine subspace of a vector space over the complex numbers.[1][2] A common point of confusion is that while a complex line has dimension one over C (hence the term "line"), it has dimension two over the real numbers R, and is topologically equivalent to a real plane, not a real line.[3]
