Someone recently asked me why a negative $\times$ a negative is positive, and why a negative $\times$ a positive is negative, etc. I went ahead and gave them a proof by contradiction like this: As...

Your title says something else than "infinity times zero". It says "infinity to the zeroth power". It is also an indefinite form because $$\infty^0 = \exp (0\log \infty) $$ but $\log\infty=\infty$, so the argument of the exponential is the indeterminate form "zero times infinity" discussed at the beginning.

I'd even start with 0.5 times 3.5 -- it feels normal to add 0.5 to itself 3 times, then not-too-bad to add it once more 1/2 a time. That establishes "add 1/2 a time" is fine and fits the repeated-addition pattern.

"Infinity times zero" or "zero times infinity" is a "battle of two giants". Zero is so small that it makes everyone vanish, but infinite is so huge that it makes everyone infinite after multiplication. In particular, infinity is the same thing as "1 over 0", so "zero times infinity" is the same thing as "zero over zero", which is an indeterminate form. Your title says something else than ...

I usually use geometric block to do multiplication. $4\times 5$ is the number of $1\times 1$ blocks inside a rectangle with sides $4$ and $5$ that is $20$ $1\times 1$ blocks. in the case of $0.5\times 0.5$ we have a square with side $0.5$ and we want to know the number of $1\times 1$ blocks inside that.

The solution is to restore the table N times by using UNDROP; and it only works if there is no table with the same name. N is a number of times the table is recreated using CREATE OR REPLACE; and time travel doesn't work as CREATE OR REPLACE drops the table and recreates it. I have created a table with some dummy data to test it.
