Oh no it isn't: Math Forum: Ask Dr. Math FAQ: Dividing by Zero

I didn't mean in the sense of an equation. A math teacher of mine once said either it was "infinite" or "infinity". I don't remember which. But it was not in the context of an equation. Rather, looking at a graph, and theoretically.

In the practical sense, though it is undefined and meaningless.

My math teacher told me πr². When I pointed out that pies are round he threw me out of the class.
