Zero multiplied by any amount is still zero.


This is a pretty apt self analysis, concerning the volumninous posts, you have made.

What about infinity multiplied by 0, I've always wondered.



infinity isnt a number so the multiplication is nonsensical

Who said anything about numbers?

Lets recap.


The dude is a government writer.


Simple enough. He us funded by the govt and he writes. Just about every reply here is contrary to his truth. So you figure it out.

you did when you questioned a multiplication.

No he stated any amount multiplied by zero results in zero, so multiply infinity by 0 and tell me what you get.

Arithmetic operations are only performed on numbers. Infinity is not a number. The question is meaningless.

Yes- but were you THERE?


This entire thread is based on the OP being "there" whatever that accounts for. Some say alot- others are less sure.

You have such a limited mind if that is the way you think.

Arithmetic operations are only performed on numbers? A x 2 = 0.




pahunkboy -> RE: Back from Iraq for a short time, ready to answer your questions if you have any... (7/10/2010 3:55:31 PM)

Unless you were THERE.'



LOL. IE this thread.

A is a variable that represents a number in this algebraic formula. To determine that number you perform arithmetic operations on the other numbers. You have such an imprecise understanding of mathematics if you think otherwise.

Algebra is more than just swapping numbers for letters it's a way of expressing mathematical concepts without the need for numbers.

If we could do all we needed with numbers there wouldn't be the need for algebra. For example try to get the square root of a negative number without using real number technique you can't use numbers as numbers there. You don't find theorists even bothering with numbers because as soon as you carry out an arithmetic operation on a number you add an error.

How old are you? j?

58 with a BS in Math and a Masters in Statistics and an FSA.

And nothing you said here as fuckall to do with arithmetic operations on infinity. But of course you knew that.

Is that a bull shit in maths?

You can't say infinity multiplied by zero = zero because it might or it might not.




popeye1250 -> RE: Back from Iraq for a short time, ready to answer your questions if you have any... (7/10/2010 4:22:48 PM)

Facechair, Joe Biden was on Jay Leno last night and said that there are now about 60,000 Troops in Iraq and that by "next summer" there would be "none!"
Any scuttlebut about sending you guys down to that Mexican border?




pahunkboy -> RE: Back from Iraq for a short time, ready to answer your questions if you have any... (7/10/2010 4:30:21 PM)

A degree in statistics. Yeah right. LOL

"Infinity, not being part of the natural, rational, real or complex numbers, does not come with the innate possibility to multiply it by anything in those sets. We can define a consistent notion of arithmetic on the extended numbers (gotten by adding in a symbol for infinity) in many cases. To be consistent with these definitions then we cannot define the multiplication 0*infinity. It is no big deal, and nothing to do with 'zero amounts of anything'. You must not think of the mathematical notion of infinity as being the same as your 'really big number, bigger than you can imagine' unmathematical notion. "

Buh bye

And a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries (dont bother googling it, actuaries work with....statistics!!!!)

Any time you want to put your money where your big mouth is (in case youre not sure, its in front of the vacuum that is supposed to house your brain), let me know.

Been busy on the internet[:D]

Since your Master was in statistics I doubt you've had much dealings with the concept of infinity, unless you are branching out into some new mathematical concept such as infinite statistics.

You dont even need HS math to deal with the concept of inifinity.

If you would like to show me where either
1) infinity is a number
2) arithemetic operations can be performed on anything other than numbers

feel free do do so.

Until then [/hijack]

Isn't statistics about some homoerogenous desire to draw bell ends on graph paper?

I never really said it was a number, I said it was an amount. I even underlined it for your convenience i.e. so you'd know for sure what I was saying. I can't really explain to you how 0 x infinity may not equal zero unless I'm using infinity in an arithmetic operation now can I?
