1. The complex number are not ordered. Which else number are not ordered?
2. Are the infinitesimally numbers are ordered numbers? It there a difference between infinitesimally number to another infinitesimally number?

I'm not going to write it out again. Please see your question here. If you don't understand the response please say so on this or the other site.

Other examples: Quaternion numbers ($\mathbb H$), Octonion numbers, Gaussian integers ($\mathbb Z(i)$), integers modulo $n$ ($\mathbb Z_n=\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z$ or $F_n$).

Yes.
Let $\varepsilon$ be a positive infinitesimal, and let $\omega=\frac 1\varepsilon$ be the corresponding infinity.
Then:
$$2<2+\varepsilon<2+2\varepsilon<\frac\omega 2<\omega-\varepsilon<\omega<\omega+1+\varepsilon$$
 
By the way "infinitesimally", ending in "ly", is an adverb and cannot modify a noun like "numbers". The corresponding adjective is "infintesmal" You want to talk about "infinitesimal numbers" not "infinitesimally numbers".
 
I asked online questions about Proposition 2.1.1: The answer I got is the following: I have some questions about the answer I got. When the person answering says: ##1.## Is the map ##\mathfrak{q}\mapsto \mathfrak{q} A _\mathfrak{p}## from ##A\setminus \mathfrak{p}\to A_\mathfrak{p}##? But I don't understand what the author meant for the rest of the sentence in mathematical notation: ##2.## In the next statement where the author says: How is ##A\to...
The following are taken from the two sources, 1) from this online page and the book An Introduction to Module Theory by: Ibrahim Assem, Flavio U. Coelho. In the Abelian Categories chapter in the module theory text on page 157, right after presenting IV.2.21 Definition, the authors states "Image and coimage may or may not exist, but if they do, then they are unique up to isomorphism (because so are kernels and cokernels). Also in the reference url page above, the authors present two...
##\textbf{Exercise 10}:## I came across the following solution online: Questions: 1. When the author states in "that ring (not sure if he is referring to ##R## or ##R/\mathfrak{p}##, but I am guessing the later) ##x_n x_{n+1}=0## for all odd $n$ and ##x_{n+1}## is invertible, so that ##x_n=0##" 2. How does ##x_nx_{n+1}=0## implies that ##x_{n+1}## is invertible and ##x_n=0##. I mean if the quotient ring ##R/\mathfrak{p}## is an integral domain, and ##x_{n+1}## is invertible then...
