0 is neither a prime nor a composite number.

0 cannot be a Prime number because prime numbers are integers greater than 1 that are not the products of the multiplication of any combination of positive integers other than 1 and themselves.

0 cannot be a composite number because it cannot be expressed as the product of multiplying prime numbers with 1 or any of its other factors, one of which is 0.
