... If a nonempty set S of real numbers has a lower bound, then it has a greatest lower bound. Equivalently, if S has an upper bound, then it has a least upper bound. Note that this is an axiom; it a statement we accept as being true without proof. Axioms form the foundation upon which all other theorem ...
