::: I don't know of any conventional mathematical context in which "<math>\frac{1}{0}</math>" or "<math>\frac{0}{0}</math>" has a meaningful, sensible, and unambiguous value. —[[User:Underscore|Underscore]] ([[User talk:Underscore|Talk]]) 18:42, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
:::: I thought 1/0 was often accepted to represent an infinity, though I can agree that infinities are not necessarily sensible nor unambiguous. That said, mathematics seems capable of dealing with such subjects. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 02:58, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
:::: Limits are such a context. <math>\lim_{n\rightarrow+0}\frac 10</math> ''converges to'' (positive) infinity. It's not ''actually'' a value per se.
