Surely you have been bombarded with the idea that it is not possible to divide by 0, which is how it is written in the rules of mathematics, blah blah blah, and of course dividing by 0 usually brings up some problems, for example suppose that one divided by 0 was a real number "a", so this means that a * 0 = 1 but it also turns out that a * 0 = 0, so 1 = 0, what is happening here? Well, it can't be divided by 0, right? Well, the truth is that you can, but not so happily.
1 match to 0 cannot be a real number a priori, another way of looking at it is the following, think about the function 1 match by x, as we want to see what happens in the hypothetical case in which x is equal to 0, we can analyze the case in which the x is very small, for example 1 match at 0.1 is 10, 1 match at 0.01 is 100 and 1 match at 0001 is 1000, that is, when we get closer to 0 with a positive the result is getting bigger. and vice versa, if we approach 0 from the negative side, the result is smaller and smaller
