Synopsis
Excerpt from The Continuum, and Other Types of Serial Order: With an Introduction to Cantor's Transfinite Numbers
The main Object of this book is to give a systematic elementary account of the modern theory of the continuum as a type of serial order a theory which underlies the definition of irrational num bers and makes possible a rigorous treatment of the real number system of algebra.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a systematic elementary introduction to the modern theory of the continuum as a type of serial order. The theory of serial order underpins the definition of irrational numbers and makes possible a rigorous treatment of the real number system of algebra. The book begins with a discussion of one-to-one correspondence between two classes or collections, and then introduces simply ordered classes, or series. It continues with a discussion of discrete series, especially the type Ï of natural numbers, and dense series, especially the type Î of the rational numbers. Finally, the book defines continuous series, especially the type 0 of the real numbers, and briefly introduces the theory of the so-called well-ordered series, and Cantor's transfinite numbers. This book is of interest to all those studying the foundations of mathematics. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333288266_0
