Question

omg i been taught that 0^0 is undefined but maple says 0^0=1?

Answer 1

my ti83 says undefined

Answer 2

It is actually indeterminate

Answer 3

i was looking at evaluating sigma(2,i=-1..27) and i have always wrote it as
sigma(2i^0,i-1..27)=2(-1)^0+2(0)^0+2(27)
but we have that 0^0 there
if we count it as 1 we would have found the right summation

Answer 4

usually a number to the power of 0 is always one. but not 0. 0^0 is classified as an indeterminate form

Answer 5

i know but how do you write sigma(2,i=-1..27) in expand form give me the first few terms

Answer 6

i know there is a rule, but i want to the rule to make sense to me
