It is like I said cats are animals and you said no cats are not animals they are living things.
The above sequence of points defines a line segment with two endpoints.

It may have never been thought of that way before because there was
no way to uniquely identify the left endpoint and the limits of the
expressiveness of language limit what can be conceived.

Now with my new infinitesimal number system copyright 2018, 2019 that
point can be identified as: 0.0[1], so we can understand that a line
segment with two endpoints does exist.

Line segments with two endpoints are denoted [a,b] which is defined to 
be {x:a<=x<=b}.  So "we" already understand such a thing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man
Intentional deceptive straw_man WHY LIE?  Does lying give you kicks?

IT IS CLEAR THAT I HAVE BEEN ALWAYS USING REAL ENDPOINTS.

YOUR SWITCH TO INTEGERS IS PRETTY DAMN STUPID.
DID YOU THINK YOU WOULD GET AWAY WITH THAT?

The first point in this interval: (0.0, 1.0] very obviously
comes immediately after the first point in this interval: [0.0, 1.0].

Adjacent points may exist in your made-up number line, but the notation
for intervals does not "make it clear".  In fact, it makes the opposite
clear.  It is not a straw man.

> IT IS CLEAR THAT I HAVE BEEN ALWAYS USING REAL ENDPOINTS.

As did I when I pointed out that adjacent points do not exist.

> YOUR SWITCH TO INTEGERS IS PRETTY DAMN STUPID.
> DID YOU THINK YOU WOULD GET AWAY WITH THAT?

This is not C++.  The real interval you write as (0.0, 1.0] is written
by mathematicians as (0, 1].  I'm, not going to break this habit because
you think 1 is an integer and 1.0 is a real.

What's more, you are quite happy to see it that way.  You wrote "the
first point in the interval: (3,4]" a few posts ago, and the Wiki
article you quoted does it in all cases of real intervals.  I won't call
this lying because it's due to ignorance and a bad memory.

(Even in computer languages you can't rely on the syntax to know the
type of the value.  You probably don't know enough languages to have
come across such things as polymorphic literals.)

> The first point in this interval: (0.0, 1.0] very obviously

There is no first point in the interval (0, 1] and that does not change
if you write (0.0, 1.0] or (0.000. 1.000] because they all mean the same
thing.  (There are a lot of things that are false that you think are
obviously true.)

Interval and segment
The simplest sets of points on the line. An interval (open interval) is a set of points on a line lying between two fixed
points A and B, where A and B themselves are considered not to belong to the interval. A segment (closed interval) is
a set of points between two points A and B, where A and B are included. The terms "interval" and "segment" are also
used for the corresponding sets of real numbers: an interval consists of numbers  satisfying a < x < b, while a
segment consists of those x for which a ≤ x ≤ b. An interval is denoted by (a, b), or ], and a segment by [a, b].

If we have a sequence of points [0.0, 1.0] on a number line and we remove
the first point (0.0, 1.0] then it is obvious that this second sequence is
exactly one geometric point shorter than the first sequence.

The difference in length is that we removed the 1.0 point from the first
sequence leaving only the point that it was immediately adjacent to.

If we try to remove the next geometric point from the beginning of this
sequence we cannot only because there are no notational conventions to
say this. Some famous philosopher said that language limits thought.

Since we just proved that adjacent geometric points exist, then by
induction there is always a next adjacent geometric point on the number line.

A sequence is a collection of elements indexed by the natural numbers 
(an infinite sequence) or a finite subset of the natural numbers (a 
finite sequence).  The points in [0,1] =def {x:0<=x<=1}  (which is the 
same as [0.0, 1.0] whether you like it or not) do not constitute a sequence.

Among the real numbers there is no adjacency.  If x < z, then there is a 
y such that x < y and y < z.  That is obviously so: take y to be (z - x)/2.

"or ]" makes no sense.

Anyway, all of (a,b), (a,b], [a,b) and [a,b] are intervals.

The first one is exactly one geometric point shorter than the second one.

The length of each of them is b - a.  The length of a single point is 0.

I can see why you didn't pass Calc II.

If the length of a single geometric point was actually zero then
the length of every interval would also be zero because 0 * ∞ = 0,
therefore the length of a single point on a number line is NOT zero.

You have apparently decided to hide from me, so you probably won't see this, but you're wrong.

0*x = 0 for any real number x, but ∞ is not a real number, so the multiplication here isn't guaranteed to hold.

Since ∞ is not a number, we have get to 0*∞ in a different way, using limits. Here, I'll be using "lim" as shorthand for a limit as x approaches ∞.

Suppose we have two functions f(x) and g(x), such that lim f(x) = 0 and lim g(x) = ∞. What we want to know is if lim f(x)g(x) always evaluates to 0. If so, then we could reasonably claim that 0*∞ = 0, as shorthand for this limit.

So, consider f(x) = 0 and g(x) = x. Then yes, lim f(x)g(x) = 0.

But if f(x) = 1/x and g(x) = x, then lim f(x)g(x) = 1.

And if f(x) = 1/x and g(x) = x^2, then lim f(x)g(x) = ∞.

Indeed, we can make lim f(x)g(x) come out to any real number we want, or to ∞. So 0*∞ does not in fact have a single answer. It's certainly not guaranteed to always and only be equal to 0.

∞ is not a number. You can't perform arithmetic on it.

A point, by definition, is dimensionless. It has no size.

The number of points in any (non-empty) real interval is exactly the 
same (2^ℵ_0).

I would say "any (non-degenerate) real interval", 'cuz [0,0], for

It does not matter what the Hell things are called as long as the underlying
ideas are sufficiently elaborated. I would give unique integers to these
ideas so that no one get confused.

Are you going to elaborate your ideas concerning infinitesimals and ∞?

That is contradicted by the fact that the interval (0.0, 1.0]
has exactly one more geometric point than the interval (0.0, 1.0).

The common wisdom that a geometric point has zero width is now
proven to be incorrect. More accurately a single geometric
point has infinitesimal width.

The common wisdom, as you call it, is indeed wise.  He who says that a 
single geometric point has infinitesimal width is only making a useful 
statement if it is accompanied by a theory of infinitesimals.  Luckily, 
there are theories of infinitesimals (see here 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinitesimal#Number_systems_that_include_infinitesimals 
for starters).  Is any of them yours?  If not, where may a coherent 
account of yours be found?

Who else has proved that cardinality is incorrect?
