### Non-existence of bijective, continuous function from $(0,1)$ to $[0,1]$ [duplicate]

The problem : Give example of a continuous, onto function from $(0,1)$ to $[0,1]$. Is it possible for such a function to be one-one? My partial solution : For the $1^{st}$ part of the question, I ...

### Is there a bijective, continuous mapping from $\mathbb{R}$ to the closed interval $[0,1]$? [duplicate]

i can't find a bijective, continuous map from $\mathbb{R}$ to the closed interval $[0,1]$. Give an example. If not bijective then what is the difference between cardinal no of $(0,1)$ and $[0,1]$ ?

### Whether there is a continuous bijection from $(0,1)$ to closed interval $[0,1]$. [duplicate]

Is there a continuous bijection from open interval $(0,1)$ to $[0,1]$. The answer is not. How to prove? I think it may proceed by contradiction and apply open mapping theorem. However, $(0,1)$ is ...

### Does there exist any continuous bijection between [0,1] and (0,1) and between [0,1] and IR? [duplicate]

We know that there are bijections between $[0,1]$, $(0,1)$ and $\mathbb{R}$. But my question is can we obtain a continuous bijection between $[0,1]$ and $(0,1)$, and between $[0,1]$ and $\mathbb{R}$? ...

### How to define a bijection between $(0,1)$ and $(0,1]$?

How to define a bijection between $(0,1)$ and $(0,1]$? Or any other open and closed intervals? If the intervals are both open like $(-1,2)\text{ and }(-5,4)$ I do a cheap trick (don't know if that'...

### Is there a continuous function from $[0, 1]$ onto $(0, 1)$?

If there is none, why? And for the other side, what about open set $(0, 1)$ to closed set $[0, 1]$ with a continuous function? Thanks
### Need a hint: prove that $[0, 1]$ and $(0, 1)$ are not homeomorphic
I need a hint: prove that $[0, 1]$ and $(0, 1)$ are not homeomorphic without referring to compactness. This is an exercise in a topology textbook, and it comes far earlier than compactness is ...
