It depends on who you ask.
Most often no, the naturals start with one. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: *kissu* ... Copied to Clipboard!

0 is the absence of a number Nah, it's the neutral element of addition. But it is an element and therefore a number :P --- https://imgur.com/NlyIzM6 ~ Lara Croft and I, as drawn by Harpie! 'I'm gonna pound a 400 lb woman just to prove teep wrong' - NigerianKnight ... Copied to Clipboard!

Why is it sometimes? Is this like y being a vowel?Actually yes. We often denote N as the natural numbers including zeroand N^+ as the strictly positive natural numbers. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: *kissu* ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's ultimately a matter of opinion, but I say yes just so my naturals can be an additive monoid.
At the end of the day I don't really care though so long as you're clear and your notation is unambiguous. --- My Social Discord Server, Eevee's Mystery Dungeon: https://discord.gg/emd My PMD Rescue Server: https://discord.gg/E57gMQq ... Copied to Clipboard!
