Prove that 0 exists

@LordSupremeChess said in #30:

Existence = nonexistence
People have experiences of all kind everytime.
If they dont have the tools/knowledge to interpret what they experienced, they have bias or other factors, thats another story.

I tried various experiments hoping to discover if 0 exists, or not, but in the end i had Nothing to show for it. :).

There are 7 baskets on a table. Each basket has been numbered from -2 to +5. The quantity of fruits in the basket is given also ...
Basket called -3 has 8 apples.
-2 : 7 bananas
-1 : 6 pears
Zero : 5 grapes
+1 : 4 oranges
+2 : 3 strawberries
+3 : 2 raspberries
+4 : 1 cherry
Basket +5 has how many fruits in the basket?

Zero exists in a state of pure potentiality. Zero has a potential of neutrality.
Global net zero emissions exists: Climate or carbon neutrality.
Zero can achieve balance. If it can do something, than it exists.

At the end of a most illustrious career, John Conway famously claimed, 'numbers are a game' ...

If you play the 'Integer Number Game', the 'cap-Z' domain is directly obtained ... zero is defined very simply as the midway point between -1 and +1 ...

And since this 'zero' now has a definition, it exists, at least as an abstract concept within the rule-set of the Integer Number Game ...

Are there any questions ?

Zero exists, because we can right it. It's in the center of an X & Y graph. It's a digit that occupies space on the graph. Zero does not mean nothing. It means something. If we cannot prove zero exists, then you cannot prove any other number exists either. Zero is a number.

The center of the graph is like the center of a pie. The center of the pie exists. It's the most tasty part of the pie. If you think zero does not exist, then you are missing out and your thoughts are not on the pie.

Zero is not empty. If it was, the pie would be a donut.
But zero is not the middle of the pie, it is no part, zero exists, but it does not have any value. Therefore, the pie is not there because all the quote-unquote "pieces" are a value of zero. There, I have said my part.

This is not a math word problem. There can be a number of fruits in basket +5 from 0-Infinity.
