I divided by 0.

Thats not enough to end the world. I divide by zero all the time.

1 divided by 0 is 0, no world ending there.

No. 0*0!=1.

0/0=everything, however.

Why did you make me click that...I don't want to do math that early in the morning...

But then again...it is looking like the answer is Chuck Norris because he wanted to! =P

Anything divided by 0 is undefined, not necessarily 0 or everything. :disapprove:

My source for that: A TI-89. :wacko:

The everything answer is a bit of an oversimplification. Its actually a limit that approaches 0/0. Here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_zero#Extended_real_line) you can scroll down a bit and it mentions that.

The specific case I'm thinking of is a derivitive, written in the form of a limit:
lim (h->0) (f(x)-f(x-h))/h approaches 0/0, but can have any value in existence.
