I swear I saw a BBC article saying that you can divide by zero now.

You can also find the root of a negative number, but does that get you anywhere, in practical applications? NO! Well, yes..don't question my logic, it's 4:30 AM

lol yeh put your calculator into 'i' mode (imaginary numbers mode) and you get -1(i) for the root of -1.

For what it's worth, this has been widely ridiculed by real mathematicians and computer scientists as bullshit.

Dividing by zero is actually done regularly in some fields and merely depends on what you define to be zero and the rules you set for its division.

That being said, neither that guys definition nor the several other often used definitions have much (if any) usefulness in common mathematics.

i (or j as we call it in EE, the root of -1) is used A LOT and is extremely useful, but still is, in fact, a product of satan. Obviously. :twisted:
