2. List of types of numbers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_types_of_numbers

   All rational numbers are real, but the converse is not true. Irrational numbers (): Real numbers that are not rational. Imaginary numbers: Numbers that equal the product of a real number and the imaginary unit , where =. The number 0 is both real and imaginary.

3. Real number - Wikipedia

   The long real line pastes together ℵ 1 * + ℵ 1 copies of the real line plus a single point (here ℵ 1 * denotes the reversed ordering of ℵ 1) to create an ordered set that is "locally" identical to the real numbers, but somehow longer; for instance, there is an order-preserving embedding of ℵ 1 in the long real line but not in the real ...

4. Positive real numbers - Wikipedia

   Including 0, the set has a semiring structure (0 being the additive identity), known as the probability semiring; taking logarithms (with a choice of base giving a logarithmic unit) gives an isomorphism with the log semiring (with 0 corresponding to ), and its units (the finite numbers, excluding ) correspond to the positive real numbers.

5. Arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic

   A common method employed by computers to approximate real number arithmetic is called floating-point arithmetic. It represents real numbers similar to the scientific notation through three numbers: a significand, a base, and an exponent. [119] The precision of the significand is limited by the number of bits allocated to represent it.

6. Construction of the real numbers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_of_the_real...

   An axiomatic definition of the real numbers consists of defining them as the elements of a complete ordered field. [2] [3] [4] This means the following: The real numbers form a set, commonly denoted , containing two distinguished elements denoted 0 and 1, and on which are defined two binary operations and one binary relation; the operations are called addition and multiplication of real ...

7. Rational number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_number

   In mathematics, "rational" is often used as a noun abbreviating "rational number". The adjective rational sometimes means that the coefficients are rational numbers. For example, a rational point is a point with rational coordinates (i.e., a point whose coordinates are rational numbers); a rational matrix is a matrix of rational numbers; a rational polynomial may be a polynomial with rational ...

9. Real analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_analysis

   The real numbers have various lattice-theoretic properties that are absent in the complex numbers. Also, the real numbers form an ordered field, in which sums and products of positive numbers are also positive. Moreover, the ordering of the real numbers is total, and the real numbers have the least upper bound property: Every nonempty subset of ...
