Does 0 = Infinity?
#2
RE: Does 0 = Infinity?
0 doesn't equal infinity, simply because 0 is a valid number, and infinity is not. Infinity cannot be properly placed in any equation, so "0 = Infinity" makes as much sense (that is to say, none at all) as "1/0 = Infinity".

There are numbers which have an infinite amount of digits, for instance 0.111... but if infinity was equal to 0, then these numbers would have 0 repeating digits, which is obviously untrue.

0 is even though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_zero
