Octonion Hyper-Operations

I think most (known) methods rely on properties such as commutative associative etc.

So that might imply they all fail for most non-complex numbers.

Note that it is also problematic to define derivatives for non-complex functions. ( zero-divisors , depending on the type of infinitesimal , ... ) 
so that makes formulas that use calculus concepts * uncomfortable *. 

Functional composition is associative ... but if we plug in non-associative numbers as parameters ... feels * delicate *.

Also we might get extra fixpoints in say the quaternions and such that harrass our convergeance domains and such.
Or as we learned before ; functions do no agree on the fixpoint. ( see the bummer thread )

There are also issues with combinatorial interpretations/methods but those are complicated.

Best I hope for is that the taylor series expansions of the solutions we have can be used ;

plug in a power-associative number x instead of the complex z and just compute the values.
... It should agree with the complex solution and by extension also the field/ring/whatever of x.

hopefully.
