We can lay C out along the X axis of the plane from 0 to 1. If x is in C then so is 1 x , and these points are linked by a semicircle in the positive Y direction. If x is in C , and if it lies between 2 3 sup n sup and 3 3 sup n sup inclusive for a certain n , then the point 5 3 sup n sup x is also in C and in the same range.

Unreferenced date April 2010 Other uses Continuum disambiguation ContinuumContinuum theories or models explain variation as involving a gradual quantitative transition without abrupt changes or discontinuities. It can be contrasted with categorical models which propose qualitatively different states. In physics In physics, for example, the Spacetime space time continuum model explains space and time as part of the same continuum rather than as separate entities. A spectrum in physics e.g. of light is often termed either a continuous spectrum energy at all wavelengths or discrete spectrum energy at only certain wavelengths . In contrast, quantum mechanics includes Quantum quanta , which are distinguished from continuous amounts. In philosophy A good introduction to the philosophical issues involved is John Lane Bell s http plato.stanford.edu entries continuity essay in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. A significant divide is provided by the law of excluded middle . It determines the divide between Intuitionism intuitionistic continua such as Luitzen Egbertus Jan Brouwer Brouwer s and Lawvere s, and classical ones such as Simon Stevin Stevin s and Abraham Robinson Robinson s.

The continuum concept is an idea relating to Human development biology human development proposed by Jean Liedloff in her 1975 book The Continuum Concept . According to Liedloff, in order to achieve optimal physical, mental and emotional development, human beings especially babies require the kind of experience to which their species adapted during the long process of their evolution. For infants, these include such experiences as The infant being placed immediately in the mother s arms at birth, and from then on carried constantly in arms or otherwise in contact with someone, usually the mother, and allowed to observe or nurse, or sleep while the carrier goes about his or her business until the infant begins creeping, then crawling on his her own impulse, usually at six to eight months Co sleeping in the parents bed, in constant physical contact, until leaving of their own volition often about two years Breastfeeding on cue nursing in response to the child s body s signals Having caregivers immediately respond to body signals squirming, crying, etc. , without judgment, displeasure, or invalidation of the child s needs, yet showing no undue concern nor making the child the constant center of attention Sensing and fulfilling elders expectations that he or she is innately social and cooperative and has strong self preservation instincts, and that he or she is welcome and worthy.

In the mathematical field of order theory , a continuum or linear continuum is a generalization of the real line . Formally, a linear continuum is a linearly ordered set S of more than one element that is densely ordered , i.e., between any two members there is another, and which lacks gaps in the sense that every non empty subset with an upper bound has a least upper bound . More symbolically a S has the least upper bound property b For each x in S and each y in S with x y , there exists z in S such that x z y A Set mathematics set has the least upper bound property, if every nonempty subset of the set that is bounded above has a least upper bound . Linear continua are particularly important in the field of topology where they can be used to verify whether a total order ordered set given the order topology is Connected space connected or not.

The fallacy causes one to erroneously reject a vagueness vague proposition claim simply because it is not as precise as one would like it to be. Vagueness alone does not necessarily imply invalidity. The fallacy appears to demonstrate that two states or conditions cannot be considered difference distinct or do not exist at all because between them there exists a continuum theory continuum of states. According to the fallacy, differences in Quality philosophy quality cannot result from differences in quantity .
