Metric spaces and open sets
Distance made abstract; open balls, open and closed sets, continuity.
A metric is any distance obeying symmetry, positivity and the triangle inequality. Open sets are unions of open balls; a function is continuous when preimages of open sets are open. No ε needed once the open sets are known. Picture it: the open disc around a point, and the same idea with the "taxicab" distance making diamonds. Think it: topology keeps the open sets and throws the metric away.
Umzekelo osebenzelayo · distance between (1,2) and (4,6)
Inyathelo ngenyathelo
- \Delta x = 3,\ \Delta y = 4
Differences of the coordinates.
- d = \sqrt{\Delta x^2 + \Delta y^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = 5
Distance formula (Pythagoras).

I akhawunti ekhululekileyo idibanisa amaphetshana kwi ncwadi nganye, irekhodi lento ogqibe ngayo, iingxaki zakho ezisoliweyo kwindawo enye, nomfundi onokuthi ubuze malunga nale phepha. IiMathematiki ngokwazo zivuliwe kubo bonke, bangeniswe okanye hayi.

Imibuzo abantu bebuza
Why "a doughnut is a coffee cup"?
Each can be deformed into the other without cutting or gluing: one hole each. Topology studies exactly the properties such deformations preserve.
What is compactness for?
It is the property that makes "every sequence has a convergent subsequence" and "continuous functions attain their maximum" true. On the real line it means closed and bounded.
