why does 0 to the power of 0 equal 1?
In: 97
0 to the power of 0 means 0 is divided by itself. 0 divided by 0 can be absolutely any number. Any number, when multiplied by 0, gives 0. Therefore, we can say 0/0 = 0, 0/0 = 1, 0/0 = 2 or 0/0 = 1234567, and all of these will be right.
To prevent that, mathematicians say 0/0 and 0^0 are undefined.
