The following is the transcript of a 3-way argument that I had with myself yesterday:
anything divided by itself is 1, so 0/0 = 1.
no, 0 divided by anything is 0, so 0/0 = 0.
no, anything divided by 0 is undefined, so 0/0 = nothing.
by nothing do you mean zero?
no.
why?
zero is defined, nothing is undefined.
so everything is defined then?
what?
you just said nothing is undefined.
no, i meant that nothing implies undefined.
something must imply undefined.
what?
doesn't the phrase "having no meaning" imply undefined?
yes.
so you admit that you're wrong then?
huh?
you said that nothing implies undefined, but yet something does imply undefined.
he's right!
that's not what i meant!!
what did you mean then?
nothing.
zero?
auuuugggghhhhh!!! [sic]
What the %$#@! is the matter with me? Please don't say "nothing"!
