          For $m=0$, you can't take the integral normally since otherwise, you would get a division-by-zero error for $frac{2}{mx}$. Thus, instead, we have to plus in $m$ before we take the integral:



          $$int_0^lcosleft(frac{0cdot pi x}{l}right)dx=int_0^l1dx=l$$



          (Note that I used $cos 0=1$ in the first step to simplify.)



          This leads to a non-zero coefficient for $m=0$.
