    'One infinity'. — Marchesk

    One anything. One {0} and off you go...

    Numbers are made by iteration and partition.

    Start with- "/", iterate: "//" and so on: "///////////////..."

    Partition each step:

    /, //, ///,...

    = {/}, {//}, {///},...

    In Arabic numerals-

    1, 2, 3,...

    Actually not quite. You can't have one infinity divided by one zero. Or if you can, the mathematical universe goes all indeterminate on you.
