Wait what? (1+2+3+4+...

I guess I have to remain skeptical because I have no clue how it all ties together. For me infinity means just that, it never ends and it can't be measured but somehow it can be used to produce a result that is finite, it doesn't make any sense. How exactly does it work? Is it all assumptions and theories?

After all, math is an inventions, no invention is perfect.

How it can produce a result that is finite? Simple:



Underlined: Wrong!!! Mathematics is not an invention. We discover theorems. We don't invent them and we don't create them.

Why is not the following proof valid to you?


We assume that 1 =/= 0,999... =>
(devide by 3) 1/3 =/= 0,333... absurd

Therefore 1=0,999...

How do you explain this?
