Why is 0^0 undefined?

Why is 24.00 hours often quoted as 12.00 a.m. when surely it should be 12.00 p.m. ?

  • Doesn't a.m. start after midnight. Also mid day is often quoted as 12.00 p.m.. Shouldn't this be 12.00 a.m. Surely afternoon doesn't start until after 12.00 mid day.

  • Answer:

    12PM IS NOON.

Because 12 p.m. is noon. A new day doesn't start at noon, it starts at midnight. Therefore 12:00 a.m. (midnight) is the start of a new 24 hours.

Surely you don't get it. Midnight is 12:00AM and noon is 12:00PM. Deal with it.

why are you arguing with the world?

wooohoo

as it is mostly the military and official people that use the 24 hour clock there are a few points to bring up. 1/ 1200 is mid day and 0000 is midnight 2/ no am or pm is used, 3/ say you are talking about midnight on 23rd you could use 2359 to ensure the 23rd is recognised and 0001 to show the morning of 24th hope this helps you out.

Midnight is 12:00am, because the morning hours (1:00am, 2:00am etc.) start then.
