| Oct 6, 2017 at 14:54 | comment | added | Maxime Lucas | That's the idea yes. I've actually seen a public lecture for non-mathematicians where the speaker started from there to the notion of bijection between infinite sets, to the proof of the fact that N is not in bijection with R. People seemed to really enjoy it. | |
