Is zero an imaginary number?

• An imaginary number is the square root of a nonpositive real number. Since zero is nonpositive, and is its own square root, zero can be considered imaginary. Note that this is definitional: if an imaginary number were to be defined as the square root of a negative number, zero would not be considered imaginary, as zero is not negative.

Is zero an even integer?

• The standard definition of "even number" can be used to directly prove that zero is even. A number is called "even" if it is an integer multiple of 2. As an example, the reason that 10 is even is that it equals 5 × 2. In the same way, zero is an integer multiple of 2, namely 0 × 2, so zero is even.

Is zero a number or a concept?

• Yet, the Greeks had no concept of a number like zero. In terms of modern use, zero is sometimes traced to the Indian mathematician Aryabhata who, about 520 A.D., devised a positional decimal number system that contained a word, "kha," for the idea of a placeholder.
