One of the Axioms of Peano's numbers is that 0 is the successor of all other whole numbers.

True

False

Expert Solution

Step 1

False

Zero is a natural number.
Every natural number has a successor in the natural numbers.
Zero is not the successor of any natural number.
If the successor of two natural numbers is the same, then the two original numbers are the same.
If a set contains zero and the successor of every number is in the set, then the set contains the natural numbers.
