However, this is where natural language is starting to fail to describe precisely, and it is simpler and better to give the mathematical definition, x⁰ := 1, instead. [Please do not use the degree symbol and other replacements for the correct characters; if you are arguing in favor of correctness, you should use *correct* symbols *and* punctuation, including those from the rich character set provided by Unicode, if necessary – ⁰, ∑, and ∏ –, and in Germanic languages like English a sentence-ending mark, for example, is *never* preceded by whitespace. (Also, indentation should be the exception, not the default.)] -- PointedEars FAQ: | SVN: Twitter: @PointedEars2 | ES Matrix: Please do not cc me. / Bitte keine Kopien per E-Mail.
