Teacher: Good morning to all. How are you guys today?
Everyone except Zero: Feeling great Teacher
Teacher-(looking at Zero) - Hey Zero, what happened, Why are you so sad
Zero- (With Sad Expression) Teacher I am a useless guy. I don’t have any value if I add myself to them.
Teacher; who told you that you don’t have any value?
Zero: (Points finger at others) All of them
Teacher- Oh really!!! Let’s check it out then. Six can you please step forward.
Teacher: Ok now what’s the value of Six?
Everybody shouts- Six
Teacher: Zero, now you stand at the right side of Six
Teacher: Now what the value?
Every body shots and laughs- Six only
Four: We told you, he is always useless..
(Zero feels disappointed and frustrated)
Teacher: Zero, now stand at the left side of Six
Teacher- Now what’s the total value?
Everybody- (Astonished WOW.. SIXTY.
Five: wow that’s six times the value
Seven; that’s great, we always thought zero has no value
Teacher: Now, Nine. Please step forward.
(Repeats the same pattern with different characters by placing Zero on left and demonstrates that each time the Value was multiplied ten times)
Teacher: Students… I hope you now realizes the value of our Small Zero. Never under estimates anybody in Life. Be always polite and getle with every body. Every body has some unique ability and talent. Do you know that Zero was invented by Indians thousands of years ago and is considered as the most important discovery in mathematics ever. Without Zero, mathematic is meaningless.
