What is your favourit number?

I may be missing something, but that's zero, right? A little LATE ADDITION to the numerical symbol chart brought to us from our friends in Arabia, a little bit of trivia that I happen to know about the history of numbers. That kind of little tidbit would serve me well in most trivia games, unless it had been RIGGED FROM THE BEGINNING!

(If you don't get this reference, go look up Brennan Lee Mulligan, then thank me later.)

These days I am also quite the fan of sqrt(-1), because gosh darn it, complex numbers are so cool.

Hmm, does 0^0 = 0? Let me rewrite the equation to clarify the case x = 0:

Now x = 0 is unambiguously not a solution, but is x = -1?
