As the old joke goes, there are 10 types of people in the world, those that understand binary... and nine others.
- rightbyte 4y agoI like that joke but I guess it only makes sense written? Or how do you say it? "Ten"? Thinking about it, "there are ten types of people" might be even funnier.

- InCityDreams 4y ago"One zero", by definition, is 'zero'.
- actually_a_dog 4y agoThat depends. In math, you can say a function f(x) has “one zero” if there exists some element z in the relevant domain such that f(x) = 0 iff x = z. Since z is arbitrary, you can even have the value of z be nonzero. So, “a zero,” in fact, need not actually be 0, and, one can speak of “the zeros of f, so there may be more than “one zero,” none of which are actually 0.
