  1. Jack Rushinsky An integer is any difference between two natural numbers. So even if you don't consider zero a natural number, it's certainly a whole number.

  2. That makes perfect sense. Even more so for a mathematician or computer scientist.

  3. Sebastjans Slavitis Zero is no more abstract than any other integer.

  4. Exactly. Integers don't correspond with ammounts of objects, but with DIFFERENCES. Fractions correspond to relative ammounts and real numbers correspond to limits of series.

  5. It's the neutral element of addition.

  6. Why? Because it's also a multiple of any other number?

  7. Alocos Dude Well then you'll have the greatest difficulties. Also you are confusing numbers with their representation.

  8. O is a real number. For example 0, 0, 0, 0... (0 is an element of Q) converges on 0.

  9. You don't need remainders to express concepts like even or odd. That would be like using a sledge hammer to crush an ant.

  10. Zero is a multiple of any number. That's why all ideals are non-trivial.

  11. Yeah I never heard of that.

  12. 0 = 2*0. Of course it's an even number.
