Why does a^0 equal to 1?

something I was really curious about

This is silly. Everybody knows $a^0=1$. But why?

I didn't know the answer to this question. And that's very dumb. I kept questioning because it didn't make sense to me:

"When we multiply something with 0, it equals to 0, right? Doesn't $a^0$ mean that there are 0 $a$?"

And all sort of things, which do not make sense.

But I finally knew the logical and algebraic answer.

We'll need to understand a law of exponent first:

Now that we understand, let's prove that $a^0=1$

Proof #

Well, I gotta learn how to write LaTeX efficiently. Until then, consider doing a handwriting recognition course.

This was a very simple thing, but I wanted to share it.

Alright, happy solving!
