Question

Is 0 an even number?
Is 1 a prime number?
0^0 = ?

Answer 1

just some late night fun since its slow....

Answer 2

- zero is dividable by 2 and either side is an odd number.
- In the definition of a prime number the number must be >1
-0^0 is undefined and it is an indeterminate.
?

Answer 3

Do you know of any methods other than differential calculus to answer mixing tank problems?

Answer 4

0^0 = 1 not undefined

Answer 5

Rest are correct.

Answer 6

interesting
could u explain please

Answer 7

Well it would be difficult and time consuming for me to type so I am just going to provide a reference link. One minute, let me search internet

Answer 9

Sorry, but feeling a bit lazy today ...

Answer 10

lol, fair enough.

Answer 11

0^0 is undefined

Answer 12

Lol I am stumped out.

Answer 13

my calculator says it is but this webpage seems to prove otherwise

Answer 14

0^0 = 1 implies ln(0^0) = ln(0) implies 0*ln(0) = 0 but ln(0 ) is undefined

Answer 15

no that webpage says its undefined

Answer 16

damn son, this is crazy

Answer 17

Not sure, then why these links says this:

1. http://mathforum.org/dr.math/faq/faq.0.to.0.power.html

2. http://www.askamathematician.com/2010/12/q-what-does-00-zero-raised-to-the-zeroth-power-equal-why-do-mathematicians-and-high-school-teachers-disagree/

But, correct @zzr0ck3r , read that again.

Sorry

Answer 18

this will make me sound dumb but how do i ask a question?
I cant see the button.

Answer 19

*I meant I read that again. Sorry

Answer 20

all those things are saying that it is undefined but it would be nice to call it 1 in some situations to make things easy. but just because it would be nice does not make it so. I already showed one example of the danger in doing such a thing

Answer 21

Yup...

Answer 22

nono dont medal me for this lol

Answer 23

Medal for clearing doubt.

Answer 24

I always thought that it is safe to assume 0^0 = 1 for solving problems easily ;)

Answer 25

NEVER AGAIN!

Answer 26

jk

Answer 27

Lol

Answer 28

Not going to forget that again in my whole life :)

Answer 29

1/0 can be defined based on context, but not 0^0

Answer 30

limiting values ?

Answer 31

yeah if we extend the real numbers

Answer 32

I should have asked this in the meta-math section

Answer 33

Hmmm. Glad that you didn't, I never heard of that section before :D

Answer 34

it might still post here actually. no idea.

Answer 35

that could be a great section...

Answer 36

Hmm same here - No idea.

Actually, I frequently discover some new sections here on OS
