oops, point out the flaw

Aug 17, 2010 at 22:39 | comment | added | George Lowther | You can find arbitrarily large q's satisfying $\vert\theta-p/q\vert\le1/q^2$. As p/q tends to $\theta$ for large q, even after canceling to get p/q in lowest terms, there will be infinitely many distinct q's. So, certainly, you can find p/q in lowest terms with q exceeding the bound $N_0$. | |
Aug 17, 2010 at 22:36 | comment | added | David E Speyer | But there has to be $p$, with $GCD(p,q)=1$, such that $|\theta - p/q| < 1/q^2$. How do you guarantee that for your choice of $q$'s? | |
