Do you work in some kind of engineering field or something where people regularly write i as "j" and coefficients to the right? Just curious.
Yeah, I'm an electrical engineer; "i" is our symbol for current, so we use j instead. As for writing it to the right or left, it's a matter of taste as far as I know. I like it to the left because you're immediately clued in that it's an imaginary quantity.
