Hi Ashley. I just saw the page on [[cardinality]] that you wrote. Very nice work, thank you. Unfortunately, I know nothing about set theory, so all I could do is add some links. However, I do wonder about the formula | |||
:<math>\mathfrak{a} + \mathfrak{b} = \mathfrak{a \cdot b} = \max (\mathfrak{a},\mathfrak{b}).</math> | |||
That does not seem to be true for finite cardinal numbers. Is there perhaps some condition on the cardinal numbers that I overlooked? -- [[User:Jitse Niesen|Jitse Niesen]] 13:14, 28 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
:Yes, of course, you're right! That was a bit silly of me. It doesn't work if they are both finite, or if either of them is 0, but otherwise it's true. [[User:Ashley J. Ballard|Ashley J. Ballard]] 04:56, 29 October 2008 (UTC) | |||

Cardinality

- Yes, of course, you're right! That was a bit silly of me. It doesn't work if they are both finite, or if either of them is 0, but otherwise it's true. Ashley J. Ballard 04:56, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
