you say
"the meaning of the symbol 0,.999...
It is a symbol which represents an "ifinite series", which bt
definition is a sequence"
the idea that
0,.999... = 1
is not in question -on this post
what is the question is what does it MEAN
fact is
what it means is
fact is
0,.999... never ends
fact is 1 does end
so 0,.999... = 1
means
a number that does not end ie non-finite = a number that does end ie finite
thus maths ends in contradiction
