I was told that the union of [0.9], [0.09], [0.009], [0.0009] ... is [0.999 ...]
1) Is this true?
2) If so, then would this be a real number, why or why not?
3) If it is real, then isn't it the next real number less than 1 (which isn't suppose to exist).
4) Finally, what does this say about 0.999 ... = 1. If 1 isn't in the union, then isn't there a contradiction here in that it doesn't equal 1?
