Just reality. I was taught by some of the greatest minds in the world.

Some of them wandered the streets, and some of them were met
in street shelters.

And I came to know something I read from "Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the
Christ" one time: in public office are the woodheads of reality, and
wandering the streets are the masterminds, from which I concluded, the world
is upside down.

No, my teachers taught me that nothing can be divided by zero.
Naturally being one who loves to buck the system, I decided that I could.

You just failed Grade 4 or 5 math, Mark!

DIVISION BY ZERO IS NOT DEFINED, PERIOD!

That is a LAW (rule) of math. It cannot be changed.

1000000/0 can be 1000, or 10001, 50000000 or even infinity. All those
answers would have to be acceptable under your rules. Under math none
are acceptable. Math has fixed rules. You can>t just go and change

Saul Levy

You just flunked first grade. You have one baked pie and divide it into no
parts at all, how many peices of pie do you get? One! Since you did not
even sink the knife into the pie at all!

Ask a kid if that one is too hard for you.
You may be amazed.

You are wrong, division by zero is an infinity, and your own example of
a pie divided into zero parts demonstrates your error. By not using
the knife, you have not performed any operation, division or otherwise,
and therefore you cannot claim that 1/0 = 1:

x / 0 = infinity, for all x except zero and +/- infinity
[/quote]
No. X/0 is not defined. However,

x/n -> ƒ as n -> 0

Not the same thing. The expression -> ƒ is best stated "increases
without bound".

To Ya All (Florida talk) Gas and Gravity equals heat. The Sun is proof
of that. Just put A NEW COMPRESSOR in my van another proof that a
compressed gas gives off heat. Love to fix airconditioners. I fix them
for free and that is very reasonable. Go figure Bert

I thought so, Mark! lmao! Did they make you pay for your
incarceration?

I hate to inform you that MOST people living on the streets or in
shelters are INSANE or far over the edge! I didn>t say ALL! You
really should love reading BEERTbrain>s theories.

I wrote here a long time ago that learning from INSANE people is not
being helpful (to you).

Of course the world seems upside down to you. That>s the clearest
mark (!) of the INSANE.

Religion is mostly INSANE too! I believe! Well, gosh durn it!

[/quote]
You are correct. I was speaking from a computational standpoint, where
X/0 is defined as the special value of "infinity" by the IEEE floating
point binary arithmetic standard. And my statement that infinity over
0 is undefined is incorrect, it defines infinity over zero as infinity.

0/0 is given the special value of "Not a Number".

Contrary to your lack of knowledge, Mark, mathematics is totally
logical and works whether there is any real-world application or not.

Algebra is the same way. Calculus is the same way. Actually algebra
and calculus are BEAUTIFUL because you CAN do real-world things with
them and find out answers to important questions in an easy fashion
which are much more difficult to determine in other ways.

Math is called the QUEEN of the sciences.
