I have some proof up for debate that 0 / 0 = 1.
let\ f(x) = \frac{x}{x}
\because \frac{1}{1} = 1
\frac{0.1}{0.1} = 1
\frac{0.01}{0.01} = 1
\frac{0.0001}{0.0001} = 1
\frac{10^{-20}}{10^{-20}} = 1
that must mean that,
\lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\ f(x) = 1
\therefore \frac{0}{0}
please note that this is theoretical, it's just something I thought about.
damnit, latex didn't work. you're gonna have to render the code in another window or something

Even [math]\LaTeX[/math] finds your """proof""" too idiotic to be worthwhile rendering.
lim x/x, x -> 0 = lim 1 = 1, therefore 0/0 = 1
genius proof, op
>>8863701
thanks
>>8863669
Its retarded.
Learn about continuity BEFORE you make such retarded claims about limits.
Your """"""proof"""""" also shows that 0/0=2, just replace 0.1 with 2*0.1 and you will have the same """"result""""".
But the inverse function is NOT CONTINUOUS. Which invalidates your whole """""""""proof""""""".
>>8863669
that is not how fractions are defined.
>>8863669
Let us consider [math]\mathbb{Z}\times S[/math] where [math]S := \mathbb{Z}-\{0\}[/math]
Consider the following equivalence relation on [math]\mathbb{Z}\times S[/math]
[math](a,s) \sim (b,t) \iff at=bs[/math]
(The reader may feel free to verify this is indeed an equivalence relation.)
Then take the following suggestive notation for an equivalence class:
[math]\frac{a}{s} := \{(b,t): (a,s) \sim (b,t) \}[/math]
Then observe:
[math]\frac{a}{s} = \frac{c}{u} \iff au=cs[/math]
Also define:
[math]\mathcal{Q}(\mathbb{Z}) := \{\frac{a}{s}:a\in\mathbb{Z}, s\in S\}[/math]
Then one can verify [math]\mathcal{Q}(\mathbb{Z})[/math] is a field better known by the notation of [math]\mathbb{Q}[/math]
>this is how the rational numbers are constructed.
>what makes you think 0/0 has any place in it.
If you allow 0 to be in the denomenator, the set wil not be a field anymore.
>>8864047
ofcourse with the traditional operations of addition and multiplication on fractions
>>8864047
Is that because 0/0 would be an element of every equivalence class, which is a contradiction since equivalence classes are disjoint?
Zero is merely a spectrum.
