Signum Function on Integers is Extension of Signum on Natural Numbers

Definition
Let $\operatorname{sgn}_\Z: \Z \to \Z$ be the signum function on the integers.

Let $\operatorname{sgn}_\N: \N \to \N$ be the signum function on the natural numbers.

Then $\operatorname{sgn}_\Z: \Z \to \Z$ is an extension of $\operatorname{sgn}_\N: \N \to \N$.

Proof
Let $n \in \Z: n \ge 0$.

Then by definition of the signum function on the integers:
 * $\operatorname{sgn}_\Z \left({n}\right) = \begin{cases}

0 & : n = 0 \\ 1 & : n > 0 \end{cases}$

So by definition of the signum function on the natural numbers:
 * $\forall n \in \N: \operatorname{sgn}_\Z \left({n}\right) = \operatorname{sgn}_\N \left({n}\right)$

Hence the result, by definition of extension.
