I have always wanted to ask this: Is zero a positive number? And do we always round up?
- Possible owner of a mildly successful $xT company.
Usage varies, there are a few notations for specifying whether the set of natural numbers/positive integers includes zero when it matters.
'Always round up' sounds more like the ceiling function (or ceil•abs) - usually rounding means to the nearest integer, or whatever we're rounding to.
It's certainly non-negative. Enjoy your status.
Exactly, x tends to be a real number, if it were an integer or a natural number you'd use n.
I am the founder if an $ i T startup.
better than $ i^2 T so dream on...

or even restrict to integers?
Then we can all be in the club!
Let's not get us integers into your fight, we're just watching, OK?
We can be in the club with integers. Consider 0 for example.
