Cantor Space

Cantor space is a mathematical concept used in topology, representing all possible sequences of binary digits (0s and 1s). Imagine it as an infinite set of points that can be visualized as the outcomes of choosing either 0 or 1 at each step. It's often likened to a space where every point can be represented by an infinitely long string of bits. This space is named after the mathematician Georg Cantor, who explored the nature of infinities. Cantor space helps in understanding more complex mathematical ideas, including functions, continuity, and the nature of different sizes of infinity.
