- Why does 0. 00 have zero significant figures and why throw out the . . .
A value of "0" doesn't tell the reader that we actually do know that the value is < 0 1 Would we not want to report it as 0 00? And if so, why wouldn't we also say that it has 2 significant figures? In other words, saying something has zero significant figures seems to throw out valuable information What is the downside of handling 0 as an
- algebra precalculus - Zero to the zero power – is $0^0=1 . . .
@Arturo: I heartily disagree with your first sentence Here's why: There's the binomial theorem (which you find too weak), and there's power series and polynomials (see also Gadi's answer) For all this, $0^0=1$ is extremely convenient, and I wouldn't know how to do without it In my lectures, I always tell my students that whatever their teachers said in school about $0^0$ being undefined, we
- Is $0$ a natural number? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Is there a consensus in the mathematical community, or some accepted authority, to determine whether zero should be classified as a natural number? It seems as though formerly $0$ was considered i
- definition - Why is $x^0 = 1$ except when $x = 0$? - Mathematics Stack . . .
If you take the more general case of lim x^y as x,y -> 0 then the result depends on exactly how x and y both -> 0 Defining 0^0 as lim x^x is an arbitrary choice There are unavoidable discontinuities in f (x,y) = x^y around (0,0)
- Zero power zero and $L^0$ norm - Mathematics Stack Exchange
This definition of the "0-norm" isn't very useful because (1) it doesn't satisfy the properties of a norm and (2) $0^ {0}$ is conventionally defined to be 1
- I have learned that 1 0 is infinity, why isnt it minus infinity?
@Swivel But 0 does equal -0 Even under IEEE-754 The only reason IEEE-754 makes a distinction between +0 and -0 at all is because of underflow, and for + - ∞, overflow The intention is if you have a number whose magnitude is so small it underflows the exponent, you have no choice but to call the magnitude zero, but you can still salvage the
- Justifying why 0 0 is indeterminate and 1 0 is undefined
In the context of limits, $0 0$ is an indeterminate form (limit could be anything) while $1 0$ is not (limit either doesn't exist or is $\pm\infty$) This is a pretty reasonable way to think about why it is that $0 0$ is indeterminate and $1 0$ is not However, as algebraic expressions, neither is defined Division requires multiplying by a multiplicative inverse, and $0$ doesn't have one
