Zero.

Zero is an even number as it is divisible by 2 with no remainder. It is either negative nor positive. The number 0 may or may not be considered a natural number, but it is an integer.

0 is a palindromic number.

0 is a pronic number:

0 \times 1 =0

0 is the identity element with respect to addition:

0+a=a

0 is the absorbent element with respect to multiplication:

0 \times a=0

Also,

a^0=1

We cannot divide by 0 as it has no multiplicative inverse.

The expression

\frac{0}{0}

appears sometimes when we attempt to determine the limit of an expression of the form

\frac{f\left(x\right)}{g\left(x\right)}

This is one of the seven indeterminate forms. 

The other indeterminate forms that includes 0 are:

0\times \infty,\, 0^0\, \text{and}\, \infty^0

By definition, the factorial of 0 is 1:

0!=1
