Since we discussed factorials last time around and hopefully that was helpful, I have come up with another reasoning of simple mathematics. This time we are discussing powers and particularly zeroth power.
Ever wondered why zeroth power of any number is always one? Here's a simple explanation of why.
The zeroth power of literally any number as demonstrated above is 1 except for the number zero itself. Now consider that a number divided by itself, obviously the result is 1. But a little deeper look in to this reveals that when a number is divided by itself it means the power of that "X" is 1. If the exponents were then re-written as shown in the image below then we can easily understand why X^0 is always 1. This also answers the question of why 0^0 is undefined as 0 cannot be the denominator.
Hopefully, this article explains something very basic and you learnt something new and fresh.
