IN YOUR FACE UNIVERSE!!!!

[ijffdrie]

I am the biggest insult to you, EVAR!!!! yet i have lived for 14 years



eat my shorts, existance!

[Ursawarrior]

HA! I DIVIDED BY ZERO!

IN YOUR FACE!

You can divide by 0, you just need to use infinity. [/U]

±infinity

[Rex]

COOOL!

[ItzaHexGor]

NERD ALERT:

According to hyperbola graphs (y=1/x), as x approaches '0', y approaches infinity. As soon as y reaches infinity, x will reach '0', and we will be left with infinity=1/0.
Going by this logic, 1/infinity=0, which makes sense, seeing as because infinity has no limit, the 1 (doesn't have to be one, will work with any number) will, in effect, become insignificant, and thus the whole equation will equal zero.
However, also according to this initial statement, infinityx0=1, WHICH MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE WHAT-SO-EVER! Therefore, 1/0 cannot equal infinity, and as a result, is undefined.

It is impossible to divide by zero.

[Fenix]

What if it's a very high value of zero?

[EonMaster]

If 1/0=ijffdrie;
KNOWN: 1/0= does not exist
therefor, ijfffdrie=DNE
Thus, ijffdrie does not exist, and therefor has no shorts for existence to eat :)

Also, if he somehow exists, maybe the universe is waiting to fb(fb='feed back' for you noobs out there) you when u turn 15?

[Meee]

What if it's a very high value of zero?


Well asked dr Unne

[ItzaHexGor]

What if it's a very high value of zero?

Either that or a low value of infinity. :P

[Fenix]

No, it would have to be a high value of zero, as ? is undefined.

[ItzaHexGor]

But 0 is defined, so its value cannot be changed.

[Ursawarrior]

actually, we've also studied that in analytic geometry where 1/inf is = 0
and that 1/0 = i (imaginary), so i guess 1/0 is also inf.

[Shadowdragon]

It doesn't need to make sense, it just needs to be a number.

[ItzaHexGor]

actually, we've also studied that in analytic geometry where 1/inf is = 0
and that 1/0 = i (imaginary), so i guess 1/0 is also inf.

That means that 0 times infinity equals one! ARRGH!
Remember, just because infinity isn't a number, it doesn't mean that it can't be used in attempted intelligent conversations on an unrelated forum's junk board.

[EonMaster]

How I see it, 1/inf approaches zero. As the demoninator gets larger, the distance from zero gets smaller. Thus, as the denominator goes to infinate, the space becomes infinately small.

(god, it's the whole .9999=1 thing all over again)

[ItzaHexGor]

That's true, and it makes sense. However when multiplying 1/0=infinity by 0, you're left with 1=infinityx0 , which is false, and makes no sense. I know all about how 1/infinite approaches 0 and how 1/0 approaches infinity, but they never will equal 0 or infinity. On a hyperbola graph, the lines will never touch or cross the x or y axis.

[LordKerwyn]

Thats what limits are for, they let us talk about what happens when something gets to a place it shouldn't be able to. Also infinity*0=1 does actually make sense if you look at it right. Just look at what the limit as x->0 does of x/x which is about as close as your going to get to a simple infinity times a simple 0. And guess what that limit equals 1.

[ItzaHexGor]

I admit that it makes sense when relating it to 1/0=infinity and 1/infinity=0, but the equation itself should equal 0. Anything (or x) when multiplied by zero gives zero, just like how x times one is x. It will always happen. In short, if you've got no lots of it (in this case, infinity), then you've got nothing.
Where did you get x/x from? That will never occur in a hyperbola graph.

[LordKerwyn]

Just so its known, it is currently 1:30 AM my time so if my answer doesn't make senseit might be because some of my own nuerons arn't firing.

Anyways, I do see where your coming from that any number multiplied by 0 equals 0. Unfortunately infinity tends to break rules like these because it is not in fact a number, its a mathmatical concept.. The x/x thing is a way to model what would happen if we could actually multiply 0 by infinity.  We ca do this because while we can't directly deal with 0/0 we can look at what happens as x/x approaches x=0. You can either just look at x/x and realize that the limit as x->0 is 1 or you can use L'hopital's rule and get the answer of 1/1 which is 1.

[ItzaHexGor]

Jeez, that's trippy.
Forgive me if I missed the bleeding obvious here, I'm not actually a whiz at maths, but just because 0/0 equals one, that doesn't necessarily mean that infinityx0 will equal 1, does it? x/x as x approaches 0 will equal one, and x/x as x approaches infinity will still equal one. There isn't anything that shows infinityx0=1.

[Ursawarrior]

wait....... is it anything multiplied by 0 = 0?
so like....12398123t5127451212983125312873129531283----->>>>>>>>>> x 0 = 0.... right?

AND I AM NOW A COMMANDER! IN YOUR FACE!

[ItzaHexGor]

Yes. If you've got no groups of 12398123t5127451212983125312873129531283 apples, how many apples do you have? Same goes the other way around. If you've got 12398123t5127451212983125312873129531283 groups of zero apples, how many apples? It'll always be zero.
However apparently it's different with limits. It's seriously confusing.

[needler]

The computer's calculator says: "You can't divide by zero." :D

[AcE_01]

my scientific calculator says "syntax error"
lol =]

[Ursawarrior]

Ace... solve this in your sci calc
1000000 tan(180 / 1000000)

YOU SON OF A *****,
YOU JUST DIVIDED BY IJFFDRIE, DID YOU?

[LordKerwyn]

Any number (with the exception of 0 and infinity) divided by 0 is in effect infinity. So if we multiplied 1/0 by 0 (which is the same thing as 0/0) we would have 0 multiplied by infinity. Actually to be completely honest 0 multiplied by infinity can actually be anything it all depends on what function is creating the situation. For example (as x->0) x^2/x is 0 x/x^2 is infinity and 7x/x is 7. It really comes down to which has more power the top or bottom of the fraction, and if the power is equal it comes down to what the constants in front of the variables are.

On another kinda cool note you don't even really need to look at as 0/0 you could also go the route of infinity/infinity which is the exact same thing because 1/infinity=0 and the same limit rules still apply.

[Fenix]

My brain says:
I give up

[Ursawarrior]

cmon fenix

YOU CAN DO IT! BITE HIS FREAKING HEAD OFF!!

but seriously, the law of parabolas states that bla bla bla............. blabla.............. negative infinity........ blablabla........... by taking the value of y......... blablabla................... equal to..... blabla......... value!

mmkay...... now do you understand fenix?

[Fenix]

Surprisingly, yes.

I was actually just trying to make a poor joke, I've always been good with abstract concepts. I understand mostly what they're going at, just not the math behind it.

[ijffdrie]

with all this people dividing by zero, where are the black holes

[Meee]

knowing our luck on the other end of the universe

[Fenix]

No, actually, BlackTech has figured out a way to control them, and has conviently placed them in the bottoms of all sewage and septic tanks.

[Ursawarrior]

oh no...... all these dividing by zeros created a black hole in my closet........... OMG! NOOOOOO!!!!!!!
GGGUUUUUYSSSS!!!!!! PPPPLLLLLEEEEHHHH!!!!!!

[ijffdrie]

erm, werent you kinda the master of dimensions?
let's check the fantastic how many people are in here thread :P

[Meee]

Speaking of which, I want to add The Ancient to my titles
