OpenStudy (lncognlto):

negative numbers and zero are also whole numbers, as they are not fractions.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

the set of integers is named Z form the german word for numbers Zahlen

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

and consecutive numbers are those numbers that come after or before with each other or we can say that those numbers which follow each other example :- \[\huge 1,2,3,4......\] \[\huge 12,13,14.....\] etc.
