Is it true that infinity is a number in standard mathematics?
Unclear. The retrieved sources indicate that standard mathematics treats infinity as a mathematical object and recognizes transfinite (infinite) cardinal and ordinal numbers, but none states outright that 'infinity is a number'; one source explicitly notes the term is ambiguous and that 'number' is imprecise.
