Proof of 1 Not equal 0.999...

Name: FrozenVoid 2007-03-01 8:54 ID:fPuNCwa3

0*infinity=(0+0+0+0...)=0 (x+0=x x=0)
1=0.999... (agreed) 1-0.999...=0
(type 1) 1-0.999...=(1/10)*(1/10)*(1/10)... (from division by 10, 1-0.9 etc)
ab=0 if a or b=0; 1/10=0 ;10*1/10=10*0 ;1=0 ;x*1=x*0 ;x=0
(type 2) (1/10)*(1/10)*(1/10) ...=(1/10)^infinity=1/infinity=0
1/infinity=0 then 0*infinity=1 bu 0*infinity=0 ;1=0 ;x*1=x*0; x=0
Every number equals zero .(by 1=0.999...)

It's the same sequence as .999... (decimal expansion), but with a0 = 3, a2 = 1, and all other a's as zero. The limit of that sequence is 3.01000..., which is what you're looking for.

First formula there.
