RE: is zero a mathematically positive number?

I am no mathematician, but we were always taught (at least in HS "advanced
math") that 0 was neither positive or negative, and therefore was neutral.

Subject: OT: is zero a mathematically positive number?

Hi all,

Totally OT, but good fun I guess... just to get out mind off things ;-)

I had a math teacher who was able to mathematically proof that 0 (zero) is a
positive number (meaning not neutral or negative). Obviously I cannot
reproduce that, but...

So, for all the math wizards out there (Petr?), amaze me with formulas ;-)

Cheers,
Marc
