James says: "This is glossary of terms for UK KS3 Maths,[ages 11-13] taken Works quite well with a 'random glossary entry' html block on a main course page since the definitions are in a small font size.

Z

Zero

Also known as 'nought', 'nil' or 'nothing', zero (symbol 0) is the integer between one and minus one. In the place value system, it works as a place-holder. Example: 105. The zero represents that there are no 'tens' above the 100.

Any number raised to the power of zero is defined as equal to one. It is also defined that 1 divided by 0 is infinity, and anything multiplied by zero becomes zero.
