Or is it both?
Office_Shredder said:Degree as what? A polynomial?
arildno said:Does it matter?
For every real r, we have 1=1^r
Office_Shredder said:It's a degree zero polynomial - if it was degree one it would have a variable term.
arildno said:a*z^0 is a zero'th degree monomial in z, a first degree monomial in "a".
arildno said:Do you understand the concept of a variable?
statdad said:"I found an answer to the degree of 0; apparently it's -∞, !?"
No, you haven't. Constants are polynomials of degree 0.
What do you mean ``12 grade algebra and 12 grade calculus''?
Some people do consider the degree of the zero polynomial to be -∞, so as to preserve rules like deg fg = deg f + deg g.statdad said:"I found an answer to the degree of 0; apparently it's -∞, !?"
No, you haven't. Constants are polynomials of degree 0.
The phrase "1 have a degree of 1 or 0" is referring to the concept of a variable having a binary degree, meaning it can only have two possible values, 1 or 0. In other words, the variable can either be true (1) or false (0).
In science, the concept of binary degrees is often used in computer science, mathematics, and statistics. It is used to represent logical values and make decisions based on those values. It can also be used in experiments to categorize data into two distinct groups.
No, a variable can only have one degree at a time. In a binary system, the variable can only take on one of two values, either 1 or 0. It cannot have both values simultaneously.
In most cases, the order of the values does not matter as long as it is consistent. However, in some specific cases, the order may be significant and can impact the outcome or interpretation of the data. It is important to clarify the order of the values when using binary degrees in experiments or analyses.
A binary degree only has two possible values, while a continuous degree can have a range of values. Binary degrees are often used when a variable can only have two distinct outcomes, while continuous degrees are used for variables that can have a wide range of values.
