In class we learned about significant figures and the importance of zeroes. I didn't know numbers could be more important than others but I guess I was wrong. I was able to do some in class practice which helped me understand it better, but it was still a little confusing at times. No matter what math or chemistry says I will always love zeroes.

That picture is a great summary of what we learned in class. I agree that it's tragic that some zeroes fall at the bottom of numerical hierarchy, but what can you do.
