| | Nonstandard Analysis is usually used to introduce infinitesimals into the real numbers in an attempt to make arguments in analysis more intuitive. The idea is that you construct a superset $latex \mathbb{R}^*$ which contains the reals and also some infinitesimals, prove that some statement holds of $latex \mathbb{R}^*$, and then use a general "transfer principle"...
