My basic position as to the use of acronym is we'd better not use it as much as we can. The reason is clear -because of its ambiguity. The speaker only understands what that acronym really means, but oftentimes readers are subject to taking them for something completely different.
'i', the imagionary number wasn't defined until it is needed so 1/0 isn't either. -slothman32
I didn't try calculating it even experimentally. As long as mathematic basis concerns, I understand.
then it diverges, i.e. goes to infinity.
In my imagination, I've got a similar conclusion. 'We cannot divide by zero.' It's a rule in mathematics. Though ambiguity still remains if we were asked this rule is derived from our empirical conviction. Almost all mathematics is firmly rooted in our empirical conviction based on our close observation to the order of things. I mean division by zero is not impossible in our daily life.
