Integer that is not a whole number?
no, integer is 0 or positive / negative whole number
Is 0 an integer true or false?
An integer is a whole number (not a fractional number) that can be positive, negative or zero - so true
Why can't we use 0 or 1 as a prime or composite number?
A prime number has just two positive integer factors, itself and 1. Therefore, 0 and 1, which have none, and one, positive integer factor respectively, are not prime. A composite number has more than two positive integer factors - that is, including itself and 1. Therefore, since 0 and 1 do not have more than two positive integer factors, they are not composite, either.
Why is 0 not a composite number?
0 is not a composite number. A composite number has two or more positive integer factors. Zero has none.
Is 0 a composite number?
A composite number has more than two positive integer factors. A prime number has exactly two positive integer factors. 0 is therefore neither prime nor composite. It is not "composed" of any factors.Zero (0) is neither composite nor prime.
