| | The study of cardinalities of infinite sets is one of the most intriguing areas of mathematics that an undergraduate mathematics major will encounter. It never fails to bring crooked smiles of joy, disbelief, confusion and wonder to their faces. The results are beautiful, deep, and unexpected. Recall that two sets have the same cardinality if...

| The rational numbers $latex {\mathbb{Q}}&fg=000000$ are dense in the real numbers $latex {\mathbb{R}}&fg=000000$. The cardinality of rational numbers in the interval $latex {(0,1)}&fg=000000$ is $latex {\boldsymbol{\aleph}_0}&fg=000000$. We cannot list them in ascending order, because there is no least rational number greater than $latex {0}&fg=000000$. However, there are several ways of enumerating the rational numbers. The...
