Just a deep thinking question. Does Zero exist? Why or why not?

Just a deep thinking question. Does Zero exist? Why or why not?
Live for the moment. If you are there physically, and not mentally, or vice versa, then the person or persons you are with are not enjoying the full benefit of who you are, and you also are not enjoying who you are and what you have to offer. So I ask you, What is the point. Just go home. And be alone, then you can just enjoy yourself, and no one will miss you, because you weren't there to start with. Confused yet? LOL

... What the hell are you talking about?!

I feel like such a 0... I don't get it.:confused:

Oh, I get it. maebarr, you are looking at my signature. Ignore it. It's just something fun that appears whenever I type. It's not part of the question.

Oooooooooooooooh I get it now. Thanks

Zero is the absence of number like dark is the absence of light.

Either that or you'll find it between I and P ;)

So does it exists or not?

Yes, it exists, it is the number between a positive and a negative! :D

DID I WIN? OH PLEASE DID I WIN?

What did I win?:confused:

Carefully touch the tip of your index finger to the tip of your thumb. Ignoring all the other fingers, that is a zero and it exists quite well at the end of each of our arms too! Without it, cavemen (and cavewomen) would have turned out to be gas in some other unimaginable creature's car by now.

Think about THAT if you want some deep thinking! :eek: LOL

Yeah, but zero is nothing, so it doesn't exist.

That's right in there with if infinity isn't real, then when it ends what's on the other side?

These are more like mobias strips of thinking. Let's swim to the really deep end and wonder how many zeros are printed (on anything) in the entire world -- that's got to be a whole lot of nothing, eh?? :D

Here's something that will make you think. 1/infinity (one over infinity or one divided by infinity) equals 0! Strange, isn't it?

LOL Yes indeedy, some parts of math simply defy logic, I think! :eek:

This isn't exactly true.
The number is so small that it is impossible to comprehend.
As Infinity is the largest possible number so 1/infinity is the smallest possible.

It is like there is no beginning and no end. It has always been. 0 represents everything that is, was and will be. It is always continuous.

OMG this is making my head hurt LOL (okay, maybe it's the dang cold I caught)
But not only is it a zero but now it's the littlest zero too??
:confused: no no nooooooooooooooooo! (runs screaming from the room)

Worthbeads, It does exist.

Well, I'll have to agree, but only on paper. In theory there is 0, but maybe not in the real world.

Now here's a real teaser. What about negative numbers? Can you have -3 apples?

Negative numbers are Definitely for imaginary situations.
It is impossible to have less than nothing of a physical thing, and before you start this also applies to more than 100% of a real thing.

Can you have -3 apples?

No, but the tree you picked them from can!!

... and before you start this also applies to more than 100% of a real thing.
Wait a minute

@#$%#@%#@&

Wait just a gull derned minute now... how can you have "more than 100% of some real thing???"

(faints)

Val, read the whole post in context ;)

Oh LOL

Doh (speed reading coupled with mind lag)

Its impossible too... :rolleyes:

And I confess my maths/english interface doesn't work well either!

No, but the tree you picked them from can!!!

No, the least amount of apples it can have is zero.:D

I just have a thing about numbers that makes a part of my brain scramble and then reach out, rearranging my eyeballs. On the bad days, I have to repeat the phone number over and over (to myself, yesssss LOL) as I cross the room least, with one tiny interruption, I forget it. And I'm talking about my own home number here folks. :eek: LOL I think of it as numbers dyslexic or something along those lines?

No such thing a minus...

What about 4-3=1 (four minus three equals one)? :D

You got me there! That is a different scenario then mentioned before.

Joe

No such thing a minus.............
I don't know Joe... seems like it exists right here on my keyboard, right next to the plus and equal -!

See, I can make lots of them - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - and yes it's the twin of hyphen, I believe?

These are concepts that the Greek mathematicians thought about and settled a few thousand years ago, so don't congratulate yourselves too much for your deep original thinking.

First of all, I never said I was the original person to think of these questions.

Second, grow a sense of humor.

Sense of humour is good to have. It makes for a happier healthier self. Lol

Hello worth:

Zero exists. I know because I'm getting zero.

Better to be getting zero than to be getting minus! :D
