>>infinity × 0 = 0
Why not an infinite amount of zeros? Now that's a dramatic realization.

Because 0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0 etc. = 0

I'll set an example for you, my dear boy:
If Infinity were to have the same value as 1 (for the sake of argument), then:

1 × 0 = 0
1 × 1 = 1
1 × 2 = 2

But in this case its infinity, and since infinity is apparently not a number, but a vauge construct, I just proved with math a 2nd grader could do, that its not only a true number, but can be stacked

Nope. Endless division of a particular distance is not a smaller infinity than endless division of a distance twice as big because infinity is a process not a product. So 2 / 2 and 1 / 2 are both a first step of their respective endless set.

>infinity x 0 = 0

no, infinity x 0 is undefined you fucking retard, you're using math on infinity as if it was just a regular number and woooow what a surprise! you end up figuring out it might be a regular number!

except not

Infinity is not a number but notion of limit reached.

if we think of infinity as simply "not finite", there are intuitive examples such as recursions without stop conditions. if the recursion evolves in a predictable way we can jump ahead and work with the function analytically. if it converges we have a limit, even without a stopping condition. this limit can be a number, but that is only a special case. most recursive functions are irreducible, you can't jump ahead more than a few steps analytically, and have to compute step by step to get to iteration N. in either case, infinity can be thought of as a recursion that may or may not have a limit. if there is no limit, it is still an infinite recursion. this is about the concept of infinity, not its use in math specifically.

Wrong, look into Hitomi Analysis
infinity x 0 can vary between (0,1)
/sci/ literally solved this shit years ago just to prove real numbers are le real

So you mean something like edge of mandelbrot fractal? That's not a number, that's a line. Lines can be infinite, but I still can't imagine infinite scalar, I know it can goes forever, but there's really hard time imagining it in set of our percievable world, as infinite scalars are platonic thing, because everything we count have some form of quantity, that is concrete, even however big, still finite, but maybe beyond the limit. Even going in loop for me seems like it can go forever, but you can't have infinite speed, therefore in reality where time has limited quantity I cannot imagine infinity as quality different than reaching a limit.

actually it's a set and I'm a shit theorist and I say sets can be a fucking number cuz I said so BIGOT!!

without a limit, only time can determine if 1+1+.. < 2+2+.. , which is the rate of computing each step, and this rate is variable. it is not a number at all.

People here seem to have a hard time grasping the true meaning of infinity.
Firstly its an abstract concept, not a number. Its use in mathematics, a language, can be likened to a sandwich. Yes, Seriously. For example consider the number line. The numbers on the number line can be thought of as the fillings of the sandwich. They can be differentiated by certain types. Such as the cardinals, the reals, the primes, the irrationals, etc, .Just like ham, lettuce, mayonnaise and cheese. Now take these fillings and place them within two pieces of bread. (i.e. Contained within a set). The bread acts as the defined parameters to the set. Do you see where this heading? Yes, exactly. Now shove the sandwich up your stupid bitch ass.
