hello? [math]\mathbb{Q}[/math], anyone? are matematicians so busy circlejerking they fail to see the obvious?
it's clear that the set of all fractions is bigger then the integers, but also smaller then the reals (almost every number is irrational)
Q is bigger, what's your point?

false

>pretending to not know Q is countable
Either retard or b8
No you moron OP, the answer is [math]\mathbf N \,\cup\, \left\{ -1 \right\}[/math].

something stinks here, 1/2 = 2/4 = 3/6 =..., so that would mean you're counting ALL the numbers infinitely often, but that can obviously can't be done in |N| steps
>>8557189
He's skipping those m8.

>claims rations are countable
>but skips a bunch of them
I heard enough
>>8557201
you can not skip them if you want. that means you're counting numbers infinitely often, and still you're counting all of them! so N is bigger than Q! wowie!
>>8557201
but 1/2 = 2/4
Those are the same rational number so it makes sense to skip 2/4
Also, why are we even having this discussion. The diagonal argument is a meme. Go google a fucking bijection from N to Q and see it for yourself you troll.

I really love this bait.
I know this is bait but people often fail to realise that [math]\mathbb{Q}[/math] is only a set of equivalence classes. [math]\mathbb{Q}:=(\mathbb{Z\times Z})/\sim[/math] where [math](a,b)\sim (c,d) \text{ iff } ad=bc[\math].
>>8557466
Fuck. [math]\mathbb{Q}:=(\mathbb{Z\times Z})/\sim[/math] where [math](a,b)\sim (c,d) \text{ iff } ad=bc[/math].
>>8557471
And of course it's [math](\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}\setminus \{0\})/\sim[/math] but who the fuck cares nobody is going to read this im going to sleep
>>8557166
hope all mathematicians die, especially that "intrigued passionate" math asshole. bet he is such a dickhead irl i mean look at his fuckign face giving those fake smiles
>>8557189
Obvious?
Try to do this. Count the numbers up, but every time you reach a new number you go back to 1.
1,1,2,1,2,3,1,2,3,4,1,etc.
Oh shit, I am counting all numbers infinitely often. We'll, I guess math is broken and I should go study art history.

Mythmaticians truly are a retarded breed. They fail to see the incoherence in mythmatics. Who knows if it is out of incompetence or if they are that deathly afraid of saying "Yup, I wasted my time studying this horse shit. Didn't even bother to check if it was coherent!" I think it's a mixture of both. Don't bully them too hard. Let them play in their autistic sandbox. It'll be exposed pretty soon anyway.
