Lab 3 - Ruler and compass: when numbers get real (F. Accossato, F.Ceragioli)

In this workshop we will try to understand what it means, in practice, that points on a line can be identified with real numbers. To do this we will start with some simple constructions with ruler and compass and touch on the need to go beyond these tools.

Activities will be held according to the following schedule:

Monday, October 23, h 16-18.30 room 6C (English)

Wednesday, October 25, h 16-18.30 room 6D (Italian)
