Is zero an even number?

[WaterOre]

it's divisible by two, therefore even

[Ad Bot]

[gr8dayseth]

why is this even a question

why is this even a question

I'm still trying to add up all these phrases.

2 people need to kill themselves

what the forget is wrong with you thinking people should kill themselves
thats really messed up you should really think about what you type before you type it

um
isn't zero divisible by loving everything
0/2 = 0
0/3 = 0
0/1 = 0
0/3746184 = 0
so it's either both or neither
and 0/0 is impossible
and 0⁰ = 1

[XR-7]

and 0⁰ = 1

What

[Ipquarx]

and 0⁰ = 1

its undefined

and yes, 0 is divisible by everything. That's the nature of zero

[ultimamax]

"zero is not a number. zero is zero" -my math teacher
but zero is even if it were to be a number, due to 1 being an odd number


0 / 0 = 0
0 * 0 = 0
0 rule = the rule of zero is 'anything divided by zero is zero' in which this makes 0 divided by zero, zero its self
the worlds problems are solved

Actually, in calculus you learn why 0/0 is undefined

and 0⁰ = 1

also false

[Gojira]

okay yeah that makes sense
i was trying to say that divisibility can't determine whether or not zero is odd or even but i guess i just made a fool of myself

Numberphile (As you can tell I like this channel) also has a video on this specific topic, helpfully titled "Is zero even?"

0x = 2, solve for x.

for multiples of two, the equation is actually
0 = 2x -> x = 0

its multiples man you're multiplying wrong

[General]

0 has no remainders when divided by 2 therefore it's even.

Nope, 0 is still even. The only qualification is that the number be divisible by two. Being divisible by other numbers being a disqualification wouldn't make sense and would break the pattern.

tl;dr i was wrong and it is even
i learned something today

[-Setro-]

1 is odd so the number before it, 0, is even.
