0, can be said to be the earliest human contact number. Our ancestors only knew nothing and existence at first, and none of them was 0, so 0 isn't it? I remember the primary school teacher once said, "Any number minus itself is equal to 0, and 0 means there is no number." This statement is obviously incorrect. As we all know, 0 degrees Celsius on the thermometer indicates the freezing point of water (that is, the temperature of ice-water mixture at standard atmospheric pressure), where 0 is the distinguishing point between solid and liquid water. Moreover, in Chinese characters, 0 means more as zero, such as: 1) fragmentary; A small part. 2) The quantity is not enough for a certain unit ... At this point, we know that "no quantity is 0, but 0 not only means no quantity, but also means the difference between solid and liquid water, and so on."
"Any number divided by 0 is meaningless." This is a "conclusion" about 0 that teachers from primary school to middle school are still talking about. At that time, division (primary school) was to divide a copy into several parts and figure out how many there were in each part. A whole cannot be divided into 0 parts, which is "meaningless". Later, I learned that 0 in a/0 can represent a variable with zero as the limit (the absolute value of a variable is always smaller than an arbitrarily small positive number in the process of change) and should be equal to infinity (the absolute value of a variable is always larger than an arbitrarily large positive number in the process of change). From this, another theorem about 0 is obtained: "A variable whose limit is zero is called infinitesimal".
