What is 0 times undefined?-Collection of common programming errors

• There’s no such number as undefined. We say an expression is “undefined” because we have not defined it to have a value. Any expression such that requires you to evaluate an expression that is undefined (like 0/2) will also not be defined, so indeed 0(2/0) is undefined, but it is wrong to say it EQUALS “undefined”, as though undefined is some kind of number.

• well, i remember hearing someone say it is a contradiction, becuase 2/0 is essentially infinity, becuase as the denominater gets larger, it get smaller, so at the smallest possible, it is the biggest possible, but 0 * anything is 0, so technically it is 0 becuase it comes last in my opinion
