0

In most math, "-0" is considered the same as "+0", and is thus just 0. The concept of a "signed" 0 (one that can be positive or negative) comes up sometimes in computing, where so-called "floating point" arithmetic requires both positive and negative zero. For more on this, see the Wikipedia article linked below.
