8 0 = 8 1 − 1 = 8 8 = 1 8^0 = 8^{1-1} = \frac{8}{8} = \boxed{1} NOT zero!

That doesn't fit if the base is 0 0 .

0 0 = 0 1 − 1 = 0 1 0 1 = 0 0 = Undefined 0 ^ { 0 } = 0 ^ { 1 - 1 } = \frac { 0 ^ { 1 } } { 0 ^ { 1 } } = \frac { 0 } { 0 } = \text { Undefined } .

Any thing raised to the power 0 is 1.

Then 0 0 = 1 0 ^ { 0 } = 1 ?
