For any real number α\alpha, define

sign⁡(α)={+1 if α>00 if α=0−1 if α<0\operatorname{sign}(\alpha)= \begin{cases}+1 & \text { if } \alpha>0 \\ 0 & \text { if } \alpha=0 \\ -1 & \text { if } \alpha<0\end{cases}

How many triples (x,y,z)∈R3(x, y, z) \in \mathbb{R}^{3} satisfy the following system of equations

x=2018−2019⋅sign⁡(y+z)y=2018−2019⋅sign⁡(z+x)z=2018−2019⋅sign⁡(x+y)?\begin{aligned} & x=2018-2019 \cdot \operatorname{sign}(y+z) \\ & y=2018-2019 \cdot \operatorname{sign}(z+x) \\ & z=2018-2019 \cdot \operatorname{sign}(x+y) ? \end{aligned}
