This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

The real numbers are all the numbers on the number line: every rational number and every irrational number, with no gaps.

Builds on

  • Nothing — this is a starting point.

Unlocks

  • Nothing yet depends on this.
