What does the Mac OS X one say?
OX X says 1.
And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
Man, I'm nerdy.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
0 is like the submerged iceberg of the natural numbers. Most of the time you never even notice it, but then suddenly you trip over it, and it's all kinds of trouble.
But 0*0 = 0. That one we do know. It's 0/0 where we say, "No no no don't go there, that's the bad place!"

And my TI-83+ says "ERR:DOMAIN" for 0^0, by the way.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
There's something cool about how mathematicians can't even agree if 0^0 is undefined.
I mean, either it's defined or it's undefined. Except it's both.
Or neither.

So I'm guessing that the symbol ^ means "to the power of"?

Yes.
On computers, anyway.
I don't know how to do the zero superscript. &sup0;? eta: no.

Ann, that's a ferret.
So it's Schrodinger's exponential?

Yes.
See, I knew that cat^0 was relevant!

What does * stand for in math?

It's the Schrodinger's number?
