Infinite Thoughts

1. What do you know about infinity?

In all honesty, I don’t know much about the concept of infinity. I’ve watched my fair share of Vsauce videos about it, but wrapping my mind around the idea is taking some time.

2. What new things have you discovered?

After watching  few videos and reading some articles, I finally understood what countable and uncountable infinities are, How they compare in size is still confusing, but I understand that by trying to make a 1:1 correspondence of sets of infinity, you can determine if one is uncountable. I’ve heard of the various paradoxes, and how there’s an infinite amount of numbers between 0-After all, you can always just keep adding digits after the decimal point!

    Dear Ksenya,

    I completely agree. Wrapping your head around infinity is very difficult and I too have watched many Vsauce videos. You summed up countable and uncountable infinities pretty well!

    Best Regards,

    Simon
