Discuter:Nombre positif

Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre.

Please excuse my writing in English (if anyone wants to translate to French, please do). Feel free to discuss in French, of course, I do have access to translations, just not right now.

I'm curious about the difference between French and English in that 0 isn't considered "positive" in English, but 0 is considered "positif" in French. I've heard the theory that it goes back to Association Bourbaki, and it also seems possible that the word precedes the time when 0 was generally considered a number, and people just made different decisions. History would be great though, both to know and to warn translators about the issue without becoming non-encyclopedic.

Apologies, again, for using the wrong language.

Le nombre zéro n'est pas considéré positive pas seulement dans le monde anglais, mais presque partout dans le monde. Il faudrait que quelqu'un l'ajoute a l'article. 81.182.216.26 2 mars 2007 à 23:14 (CET)

je vais plutôt le supprimer. C'est à mon avis le genre d'affirmation non encyclo. Oxyde 3 mars 2007 à 00:42 (CET)
