year 2006 the abriviation is 06.

same rule applies.

there is a 2 in the thousands colum signifying that there are TWO thousands. there is a 0 in the hundreds and tens place values. and there is a 6 in the ones place signifying that there is SIX ones.

two thousand(s) and six(ones)

the abreviation 06 is just a shortened version of the year number. six in the ones place and zero in the tens.

0 is not a rational number. But when you start talking about values and stuff, 0 is a number because something's value can be 0 or even a negative number. I think they are called irrational numbers.

I forget, I had it written in my math notebook somewhere.

I don't think anyone is listening to me....

Isn't zero, in math, called null?

I don't know. I still think this is a really stupid topic. 0 represents nothing, and to say 0 does not exist means the state of nothingness does not exist.

0 doesn't always represent nothing. What Cromwell is saying is that "0" can be part of the tens or hundreds column. For example, you can't have the number ten without a zero.

I dunno if anyone has caught this yet, but I guess I will. There is no such thing as darkness. Darkness cannot be measured, since you are measuring light. The term "dark" is merely used to describe an absence of light. The same goes for 0. "0" is just used to describe a lack of value. Hence, zero is not a number perse, but rather an explanation for what is not there. If zero is in the ones column (10), it shows a lack of value for that area. There is value in the tens, just not the ones. This lack of value is represented by the numeral 0. The same goes for the number 1000. There is no value in the hundreds, tens, or ones columns. Hence, the desegnator for lack of value is used to hold the place. /mathematicalandpsychologicalrant

What is 0? So full of care, We have no time to stand and stare.
