0! implies 0 times the next number(s) in sequence
as an humble 7th math and science teacher, I may only suggest that the
calculator sucks
why?
any number to the zero power is 1
0, as I have researched, is an identity property for addition and subtraction
and, any number/integer time 0 is zero
Hence, I would forward this to SFSU or Yahoo homework assistance for
explanation
But what factor/number exists past 0? if 1! =1, the 0! cannot =1..
move past this point to 3! = 6 and deal with what these youth will have to
face to get into the school of their choice....
good speking with ya..........and let me know if you find an answer
