Well, that's fine. Wrt this subject its all about a Cantor pairing. Take 
any natural, (yes zero works as well) and be able to map it into a 100% 
unique pairing. Then say okay, we have this unique pair. Now, we are 
able to take said unique pair and map it right back to the natural that 
created it to begin with.
