zero is infact a number not a placeholder contrary to popular belief.
many people may argue that zero is the bridge between the positives and the negatives upon the infinite number line. However Zero has a value just as any other number on the number line. zero has a value of zero. this is not an absess of value but the very much real value of zero.
if a certain representation has a value on the number line it must therefore be a number. the socalled bridge between the positive and negative numbers is the line upon which all numbers of infinite value are settled.
