I type way too slow for a quiz like this, but I wanted to know what 0 was called. Never heard of it.

@Sporctastic @googlebird It is used in math and science. Like raise 14 to the zeroth power, or in thermodynamics, there is a Zeroth Law.

I am confused. I think the quiz is asking me for the spelled-out ordinal form, but when I typed two I got the comment 'no, that's ordinal'. ??

I wasted time, confused as to why "twenty-first" didn't work. I was going too fast to read the questions!

@Sporctastic, @sproutcm: It's also used in programming. Since many programming languages are zero-indexed, it makes sense to refer to the initial item of an array (for example) as the "zeroth" rather than the "first", since one accesses it using [0] instead of [1].
