logamath 2009-04-05 19:11:39 1 1 1 1 This article does not explain Cantor's diagonal argument. If this is truly what Cantor meant, then I have to say Cantor was very confused. The article is vague and incorrect in several ways. I am not convinced the real numbers are uncountable from reading this article.
