| Graham's Number. |

Yeah, but what use is that? Like WhatevaGuy said, and this is true, Graham's number is the upper bound in a complex mathematical problem. You just made a grotesquely large number. |

There's not much of a controversy. Division by zero is not defined. Period. So, it's not even correct to say that 1/0 = undefined. "Undefined" is not some special math term. It's the English word literally meaning something that has no definition. So, we have no definition for the result of a division by zero. That's it. Further, infinity is NOT a number. So, it cannot be the case that the result of any arithmetic operation is infinity. It's rather like 1+1 = happy. Happy is not a number, so this statement makes no sense. So, (1/0)^0 has no defined value, because 1/0 has no defined value. - Doctor Roy, The Math Forum --- End quote --- Mah theory has bee proven wrong. :c |
