About 0.999… = 1 (Thank you for your valid answer. I accepted the other one because of the comment thread following it) |

About 0.999… = 1 Ok, thank you for the explanation. |

About 0.999… = 1 We're interested in something like $(1-r)(1+r+r^2+\dots r^N)=1-r^N$. Which property (of ordered fields?) is being transferred? (it would be an occasion for me to understand what this transfer principle is about, in an elementary instance like this) |

About 0.999… = 1 But why the formula $\sum_{i=1}^N r^i=(1-r^N)/(1-r)$, for $r$ real, is still valid when $N$ is infinite? (btw, yes I think "infinite" is the technical term used in nostandard analysis) |
