> Dennis Hamilton, 2010-02-01:
> This public comment notes that the cases for X=0 are problematic if the series specified a negative exponent for any term and also if the exponent 0 arises.
> The current specification does not require or treat the exponents and the interval as integers. If non-integral values are permitted, there are additional problematic cases.
> Although 0^0 = 1 is assumed by some practitioners, it is arguable that 0^0 is not mathematically determined. Since some spreadsheet programs already treat this as an error, it would seem prudent to continue to do so.
