This study contains a survey of the various complex and hypercomplex number algebras up to the 16-dimensional system of the sedenions, introduced by \textit{C. Musès} [Appl. Math. Comput. 3, 211-226 (1977; Zbl 0359.10050); 4, 45-66, (1978; Zbl 0377.10029) and 6, 63-94 (1980; Zbl 0439.17011)] a system which is alternative, contains nonreal square roots of 1, zero-divisors, nilpotents and a nonreal norm. The author calculates logarithms and polar forms for the algebras in question (quaternions, counterquaternions, octonions, etc.).
