This is how division works:
6 / 2 == 6 - 2 untill R = 0
6 - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2 - 2 = 0
1 + 1 + 1 = 3
therefore 6/2 = 3

Now lets try with 0
6/0 = 6 - 0 = 6 - 0 = 6 - 0 = 6 - 0 = 6 - 0 = 6 - 0...
It doesn't go anywhere, it will keep repeating the same fucking formula for all of time because nothing will change. That is why x/0 is undefined. Not because it equals anything, but because it doesn't go anywhere.

This is elementary math, in other words all the tards in this thread who thought otherwise are brainlets.

This is bait, right? sinc(x=0) is exactly one. Expand (knowing that the quotient sin(x)/x exists at x=0), sin(x) in a Taylor series, and evaluate the series/x at x=0.

No, it's an infinitesimal value which approaches [math]1 \in \mathbb{N}[/math].

>> No.9296827

When you define what a division is, one of the things you say is that the second number can't be 0, that's why division properties have no sense with the 0.

>> No.9296836

>>9296827
What if we redefine it using complex infinitesimals? Then it actually makes sense and in some (non-standard) models of PA we can even show 0 = 1/0 = 1.

It follows trivially from [math]\mathbb{N}[/math] with the subspace topology (considered as a subset of the hyperreals) being the (unique up to weak homotopy equivalence) infinitesimal separator object in the [math](\infty,1)[/math]-topos [math]\infty\mathbf{Grpd}[/math]. A special case of this means that if any value of sinc approaches [math][x,1] \in \mathbb{N}[/math] where [math]x[/math] is a suitable infinitesimal, then it cannot pass it. I don't know of an analytic proof of this though.

It's not the same
It's not sinx/x anymore, it's another function which overlaps with sinx/x on its domain and is defined at 0
