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!

Newton's First Law: An object in motion, will remain in motion and an object
at rest, will remain at rest, unless acted upon by an unbalanced force in
which the net force is not zero.

Message-ID: ver

"Naïve students may believe that constant motion requires a constant force.
Students at this age should begin to understand that once an object is
moving, it would stay in motion until an outside force stops it. Naïve
students may believe that if a body is moving forward there must be a net
force in the forward direction."
