A real proof would start with "Let ε > 0".

O.9999999... doesn't equal 1, simply because it's an O in front, not 0 (Zero)

The problem is not 0.99999999999...
10-9.9999999999999999.... seems more confusing. Can someone explain that smallest positive number?

Can someone explain to me why “a” is essentially the same as “A”? Only don’t use the whole alphabet, only use the letters a, h, x, and z. Any answers that contain letters other than those I won’t accept for some arbitrary reason. Thanks.

Is the name color based on donation level?
