And you expect to teach OTHERS?!

The IEEE Floating-Point Arithmetic Standard (IEEE 754) defines zero
representions as positive zero and negative zero.

I see you tried to run away from alt.newsgroup.kooks, kook.

Just about every CPU on
the planet uses this standard.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha!
By your standard, +infinity, -infinity, and not-a-number are numbers.

If zero is not positive or negative, then
what do you figure it is?

Gee whiz, that's a hard one. Why don't you ask a preschooler for help
on that difficult logic problem eh!

"The teaching of science and mathematics must be purged of its
authoritarian and elitist characteristics, and the content of these
subjects enriched by incorporating the insights of the feminist,
queer, multiculturalist and ecological critiques." -- A.D.S.
