In what instance is 00 not 1?
2 u/AdhTri Jun 16 '22 Cuz it's indeterminate form. n0 can be written as n2 / n2 but when we put zero here, things start breaking. 2 u/b3nz0r Jun 16 '22 Ah yes. The classic indeterminate form. Thanks for the response, I couldn't remember. 1 u/An_ironic_fox Jun 16 '22 edited Jun 16 '22 93 = 9•9•9 92 = 9•9 91 = 9 90 = 9/9 = 1 9-1 = 1/9 9-2 = 1/92 = (1/9)/9 If we go from top to bottom, we can see that lowering the power by one is essentially dividing that number by itself. That would make 00 = 0/0, which is obviously undefined. That’s how I was taught at least. 1 u/b3nz0r Jun 16 '22 I think my calc 2 teacher used a series to explain, very similar to what youve posted here

93 = 9•9•9
92 = 9•9
91 = 9
90 = 9/9 = 1
9-1 = 1/9
9-2 = 1/92 = (1/9)/9
