Hi guys, it’s not strictly about Chicken, but a quick note about 0^0 is in order. Dominic Pearson wrote:

It’s more than that, 0^0 is not defined in Maths. Simply put: lim(0^x) for x→0 = 0 lim(x^0) for x→0 = 1 Therefore 0^0 has more than one solution -or- is undefined. Graphical explanation: if you plot the surface z = x^y, you will see that it approaches the origin both with value constantly 1 from one direction (along the x axis, where y = 0) and with value constantly 0 from the other (along the y axis, where x = 0). Therefore, at the very origin, both 0 and 1 are solutions! Moreover, all numbers between 0 and 1 seem to be solutions too, looking at the graph. (Other numbers would be too, if you plotted the other quadrants of the surface… some of which are imaginary :-)  Cheers Tobia |
