You cannot count in imaginary numbers but does that mean that they do not exist?

ActuallyThey do exist. They're not "imaginary" in the sense that they don't exist. They're a fundamental element of calculus. An imaginary number is the square root of a negative number. (More specifically, they're x*i, where i=the square root of -1, and x=any real number. eg 5i (5*sqrt(-1)), 12i (12*sqrt(-1)), etc.)
