However, they are within the set of natural numbers, but three of them cannot be directly represented. Although, they can be indexed using natural numbers, zero aside for a moment: [0] = 1 [1] = 1.25 [2] = 1.5 [3] = 1.75 [4] = 2 There is an infinity between 1 and 2... They can be indexed using naturals? ;^) Just having some fun with numbers here. Try not to flame me off into a dry lake bed. :^)
