"i" is used to denote an imaginary number, so Miri was right with that one.
0 is neither negative, nor positive, nor prime (0*1=0, but so does 0*2, and 0*3 and 0*...) and contrary to what all those math teachers tell you: a number divided by 0 is not undefined! It's infinity!!!! It is! because if division is the number of times you can subtract number "x" from number "y", then if "x" is 0, you can subtract that infinite times from "y"! You can't subtract it undefined times!!!!!! It's infinity I tell you!!!!!! Iiiiiinnnnnfffffffiiiiiiinnnnnnnniiiiiiiiittttttttttyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!![/rant]
Prime numbers have only themselves and 1 as factors, and they are not negative.
1 is prime, but it is not counted as an odd number.
The only even number that is prime is 2.
3 is the first prime number that is also odd.
An even power of any number is positve, whereas an odd power of a positive number is positive and of a negative is negative. The 0th power is always one. So 0^0=1, as weird as that is.
The square roots of all negative numbers are imaginary, and so are the even powered roots, but the odd powered roots of negative numbers are negative numbers.
Edit: Just some changes.

Too legit to quit.
