Why 0/0 not equal to 1 since 2/2 or y/y equal to 1 huh?
Why 0^0 not equal to 1 since 2^0 = 1 or y^0 = 1 huh ?

0/0 is simply undefined.....
in some branches of mathematics, we may interpret a/0 , where a is non zero number to be infinity (positive or negative)

Thanks. XD. The link has provided an excellent answer to the question to 0/0.However, there isn't any explanation for the question of 0^0 in the link.
