From: |-|ercules on 2 Jul 2010 11:25 As the length of the list of computable reals->oo, the length of all possible digit sequences on the list->oo. What's your explanation for what happens if the list IS infinitely long? All sequences doesn't quite make it to infinity?? It misses some?

Can you tell us the difference, if any, between a list that "approaches infinitely length" and a list that "has infinite length"? 2. The infinitely-wide list contains the digit sequence .333..., so what is the next digit sequence that follows it in the list?

I'm not sure it's worth answering these questions without you acknowledging whether you agree with my other answers in the thread "As the length...". Keep aus.tv in the groups if you want to ensure I will read your response. Herc |
