Mr Example.

I enjoyed those two Monsieur Ejemplé threads so I thought I'd pose a maths question of my own, in fact I'll do two on countability. They're not that hard, but I think they're more enjoyable than calculus

1. Let f : R -> R be monotonic.
Is  the set { x | f is discontinous at x} countable?
where x is in R.


2. A function f : N -> N is increaing if f(n)>= f(n+1)   (if it's bigger than OR equal to) and a decreasing function is similarly defined.

is the set {f | f is increasing} countable?
is the set {f | f is decreasing} countable?

Yeah, sorry for making you type all that. :)

But I'm thinking like this; for every 8-shape, recursively put a smaller 8-shape in each of the loops. Let one of the sides be '1' and one be '0'.
Now you can follow the infinite shapes to form every binary string.
