Real numbers, chaos, and the principle of a bounded density
... increasing sequence of rational numbers, that is a real number. In theory, the fact that the length of a pencil is a real number permits to record an infinite amount of information by sharpening the pencil to give it definite length. However, this idea is inconsistent with a principle, I will call t ...

... Blake had only scored 3 runs when he lost his wicket. Things to think about: a What operation would you need to find Blake’s score? b Is it possible to subtract 5 from 3? c What number can we use to display Blake’s score? d Suppose Blake scored 6 runs on the next ball. What would his new score be? ...
