Sonic waves are mechanical pressure waves. LASER to audio. Audio to RADAR? IR and microwaves will heat the air enough to make noise if modulated at audio frequencies.

Is there a difference between a list of digit sequences with lengths approaching infinite length, and a list of digit sequences that are infinite in length?

Have you read my fencing Vs mowing analogy? Finite sequences are fences, and at the limit all fences are finite. Samples of finite prefixes are mown grass, and at the limit the infinite lawn is mown. i.e. your method of determining the computable sequences are ALL but FINITE is incorrect. Herc

Yes but that's not the assertion. It's the 'covered sequences' within the infinite sequences that approaches infinity. For each subset of reals, there exists a maximum digit length that that subset doesn't miss a possible sequence of initial digits of that digit length. Binary example 00000000... 01111111... 01011111... 01000000... 01010101... 00111111... 11111111... 11000000... 11011111... 10000000... 10111111... 11000000... The length of all possible digit sequences within the set is 3. Want to see a bigger list and see what happens? Herc |
