So can factorial only be defined in 0 and positive integers? Gong Pil-seong, a leading player with number 0 in the 1990s and 2000s, had no choice but to change his uniform number during his third year as a professional. But it doesn't say '0 apples'.

It was thought that 0, that is, without anything, was meaningless and therefore not a number. 0 (zero) is a number representing an empty quantity. The natural number next to 0 is 1, and 0 is not the next natural number.
0 is the smallest non-negative integer.
Zero, represented by the number 0, is the basic structure of the number system. Euler, a Swiss mathematician in the 18th century, expanded the factorial to be defined in all numbers, like this. Just as 1, 2, 3 are 一, 2, 3 in Chinese characters, 0 is ‘zero’ in Chinese characters. Natural numbers may or may not include 0, but the fact that 0 is an integer.
However, when writing numbers, because the number of strokes is complicated, it is usually replaced with a simplified round shape, 〇. The concept of zero, which seems simple and intuitive today, has a rich and complex history spanning centuries and cultures. Even outside the framework of numbers, 0 was excluded from operations such as addition and multiplication. In mathematical terminology, 0 is the additive identity.
The natural number next to 0 is 1, and 0 is not the next natural number.
From the beginning, number was thought to have been created to 'count' the number of objects. 0 is the smallest non-negative integer. Adding (or subtracting) 0 to any number leaves that number unchanged; In the KBO league, No. 0 Gong Pil-seong and Kim Kang-min, and No. 0 Kim Gyeong-gi can be said to be representative examples.
Natural numbers may or may not include 0, but this does not affect the fact that 0 is an integer. However, in other cases, 0 can be defined as a natural number. In this respect, compared to other numbers from 1 to 9, 0 is definitely.
