Can print (0**0) in Python?

Based on our math rule, 1**0==1, but no 0**0. Is it reasonable in python to print(0**0), which returns 1?

Interesting question. Wolfram Alpha gives undefined for 0^0 https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=0%5E0 And I found this too: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14414430/why-0-0-equals-1-in-JUMP_LINK__&&__python__&&__JUMP_LINK Actually, even mathemathicians disagree what it should be, and "Most programming languages follow the convention that 0 ** 0 == 1. Python is no exception, both for integer and floating-point arguments."
