Best Answer

Z, the twenty-sixth and last letter of the English alphabet, is a vocal consonant. It is taken from the Latin letter Z, which came from the Greek alphabet, this having it from a Semitic source. The ultimate origin is probably Egyptian. Etymologically, it is most closely related to s, y, and j; as in glass, glaze; E. yoke, Gr. /, L. yugum; E. zealous, jealous.

It is pronounced "zed".

For example, NZ; would never be pronounced using "zee". Also if talking about the letter by itself it is most often pronounced "zed".

Why does multiplication by 2 define a bijection from R to R R meaning set of Real numbers but not from Z to Z Z meaning set of integers?

It's not a bijection in Z because it's not surjective. For example, f(x) = 3 has no solution in Z. In other words, you can't double an integer (Z) to get an odd number. It works in R because it's ok to have decimals.

What is the meaning of the name Zayne?

The way I have seen "Zayne" spelled is Z-A-N-E not Z-A-Y-N-E but the spelling doesn't matter. The meaning of the name Zayne or Zane is "God is Gracious". In my opion Zane is a very beautiful name.
