# So you're basically saying that there is an infinate numebr of zeros in any one number, of any size?
Because that makes perfect sense.

# yes and it does make sense....
but because it's late and I'm still hungover it's not the reason it's undefined:

In this, the graph is 1/x and lt means limit. As the you get very small from the positive side, you tend to infinity but as you get very small from the negative side you tend to negative infinity. so you end up in a pickle, sorry for the shoddy explaination the first time...

# Mine's awful :P
I'm trying to write a letter and I have to concentrate really hard to make it legible.
Letter writing usually takes me all day.

# Oh, I see.
Would it help if I specified whether I was dividing by positive or negative zero?

# that's the problem
+0 = -0

# Well let's say it doesn't.
(That would make -0 into 11111110 as a signed byte, I'm not sure whether that already means something or not, I think perhaps it's up for grabs.)
