How about ANY FINITE SEQUENCE AT ALL?

    Rare in this context is a question of density. There are infinitely many integers within the real numbers, for example, but there are far more non-integers than integers. So integers are more rare within the real.

          They should look up the classic example of rationals in the real numbers. Their statement could hardly be more wrong.

              I most assuredly am talking about your false statement regarding density.

                  Weird to flex when you have nothing to show off. Let me show you how you do it, buddy: I am a mathematician. Infinity, density and cardinality of sets are not mysterious to me because I read a lot of books. If you read a few then you might discover your very cool comment above was actually not so cool and true.
