Hint Needed for a Decreasing Sequence of Limit Points I'm trying to work through exercise 13E, part (4) of S. Willard's Topology through self-study.  I'm scratching my head on the question below.  I paraphrased of some notation earlier in the exericse, which is required to understand the question.

Given a set $A$, let $A'$ denote the set of accumulation points of $A$.  Let $A^1 = A', A^2 = (A^1)', A^3 = (A^2)'$ and so on . . . .
For any positive integer $n$, there is a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ such that $A,A^1,\ldots,A^{n-1}$ are non-empty and $A^n = \emptyset$.

Of course, we assume $\mathbb{R}$ has the standard topology.
I'm scratching my head trying to construct such a set $A$.  I've thought about taking the union of some collection of sets, each in a form similar to $\{ 1/n : n \in \mathbb{N} \}$, and arranging the limit points thereof so they fall off one by one as I continue to find the limit points of the limit points.  I haven't found a way to make this work, though, and I have a feeling I'm heading in the wrong direction.
Can someone please provide me a hint or some guidance?  I'd like to work this out myself, so please do no provide a solution (or if you do, please conceal it as a spoiler).  I appreciate your assistance.
Best,
Doug
 A: Here’s a schematic of what you need to get the case $n=4$ in the plane; it generalizes easily and also adapts fairly easily to $\Bbb R$.
