Please stop talking about your imaginary girlfriend, it's embarrassing honestly.
Nope, you fell for the classic sibling blunder:
What about INFINITY PLUS ONE!?
It's Infinity! Infinity -1? also infinity! Well what about infinity times infinity? Believe it or not, infinity! ♾️
What about infinity times zero?
For that one we're going to call my good friend L'Hôpital. That guy rules!
Last time I saw this kind of challenge it was on reddit and I just replied with ℝ, but people brought up that this leaves out complex numbers. I'll now contend, however, that any number not included in that isn't real.
This image goes so hard
Just like birds, complex numbers aren't real!
Screw you sqrt(-1), you aren't even a real number, you poser!
Aren't there numbers past (plus/minus) infinity? Last I hear there's some omega stuff (for denoting numbers "past infinity") and it's not even the usual alpha-beta-omega flavour.
Come to think of it, is there even a notation for "the last possible number" in math? aka something that you just can't tack "+1" at the end of to make a new number?
Which of the infinities? There are many, many :D
The smallest infinity is the size of the natural numbers. That infinty, Aleph zero, is smaller than the infinity of the real numbers, Aleph one. "etc."
Which of the infinities? There are many, many :D
Oh no! Please don't tell me there are infinity infinities!
Unfortunately yes there are and it's a very big infinity of infinties....
Wait, they ran out of greek letters and started using Hebrew ones now? When did that happen?
There is nothing "past" infinity, infinity is more a concept than a number, there are however many different kinds of infinity. And for the record, infinity + 1 = infinity, those are completely equal. Infinity + infinity = infinity x 2 = still the same kind of infinity. Infinity times infinity is debatably a different kind of infinity but there are fairly simple ways of showing it can be counted the same.
Essentially the number of numbers between 1 and 2 is the same as the number of numbers between 0 and infinity. They are still infinite.
Doesn't include "i"
i isn't a real number, you imagined it
From gatekeeping to gaslighting in 2 comments. Not bad!
What a girlboss
not a real number
Oh you like math? Name all the sets of sets that don’t include themselves.
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
[0-9]*\.?[0-9]*
edit: ok no empty strings [0-9]+\.?[0-9]*
That regex implies “” is a number
If I had a nickel for every time that happened I'd have "" nickels.
I didn't realize '.' is a number.
\([0-9]+\.[0-9]\)?[0-9]*
is more accurate I think.
You also have to remember to put the +C at the end
Pi

(∀x:Number(x)=T)(Name(x)="Fred")
I name every number Fred.
