``Re: point'' by CWoo on 2006-07-27 20:47:54
Not quite. A geometry is a set with some kind of an incidence relation (reflexive and symmetric) defined on it. Of course, there are more ingredients that can be added to this set so the concept of a point (and a line, etc...) becomes clear. So I think the two notions (geometry vs topology) are different.
