Aleph Null - Justin's Blog

This is where I post my ideas, musings, tutorials, and other articles.

Aleph is the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet. In mathematics, it is used to designate the cardinality (i.e. "how big is it") of infinite sets. Aleph null (₀) is the cardinality of countably infinite sets like natural numbers, integers, and rational numbers (fractions of integers). It intrigues me that there should be just as many integers as fractions of integers, when the intuition is that fractions made from integers should be more numerous than the integers themselves. I think that is a little bit of what it's like to try to understand God - when we, as finite beings try to understand the infinite, even our intuition is wrong.
