While appreciatively here acknowledging the contributions derived through the use of data from the underlisted sources, appreciation is also tendered to other internet sources too numerous to mention towards this project.
0 (zero) is a number representing an empty quantity. As a number, 0 fulfills a central role in mathematics as the additive identity of the integers, real numbers, and other algebraic structures. The symbol 0, indicating an absence of quantity or magnitude.
1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of unit length is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer.[1] It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by 2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following 0.
10, X (ten) is the even natural number following 9 and preceding 11. It is the first double-digit number. The cardinal number that is the sum of nine and one. It is the base of the decimal number system and the base of common logarithm.
