0-0=0
0x2=0
0x.5=0
0^5=0

Zero minus zero is zero not negative zero, and zero divided by zero is not -0. I do not see how the answer could be -0.


ok how much is -0?

its like calculating infinity. infinity + infinity = 2 infinities


:lol:

0:0 cannot be calculated.
and infinity is infinity, it cannot be estimated either.

Now that I googled negative zero this came up on wikipedia, I do not trust wikipedia too much, but this is one example it had ( -0) - ( + 0) = - 0

yup, i started this discussion because i was learning maths and have never seen such BS like today (and the last few years) by maths. we are talking about minus infinity in school, WTH, give me minus infinity apples :?

Wikipedia wrote:-0 is the representation of negative zero or minus zero, a number that exists in computing, in some signed number representations for integers, and in most floating point number representations. In mathematical terms there is no concept of a negative (or positive) zero, and -0 is identical to, and represented as, 0. In science, -0 may be used to denote a quantity which is less than zero, but which is too small in magnitude to be rounded down to -1. In statistical mechanics, certain systems in a state of population inversion may be considered to have an absolute temperature of -0.


So if I understand this right 0=-0?

lol ... well minus infinity is more likely then minus zero .. zero is like the border between minus and plus ... so it is just NOTHING ... it cannot be negative nor positive, as far as i know ...

Ok, if you think that infinity or minus infinity is hard to comprehend, try explaining why between 2 integer numbers are an infinity of small decimal numbers. :lol:

LOL .. no, just as i said, mathmatically there is NO NEGATIVE ZERO, if so .. it is just ZERO!
