Is the zero is the smallest number?
Yes, zero is the smallest whole number. One is the smallest counting or natural number.Another opinion0 (called "zero" or "nil") means "nothing exists" so 0 cannot itself be a real number.So the smallest whole number is 1. (Also known as "one" or "unity".)
Is the number 0 the smallest number?
no 0 isn't the smallest number because there are negative numbers so there really is no biggest number nor smallest number
Why is zero not considered a counting number In timer down counters it counts down to zero?
If a timer is counting down from 30, it doesn't actually count 30. It starts counting at 29. If you are counting up to 10, you wouldn't count the number that you are counting from. If you counted 0, you would actually be counting 11 numbers.
