Nowhere dense

The same content is present at nowhere dense but I felt this deserves a separate page. I'll be creating a page on Volterra's function in the near future if someone doesn't beat me to it  :-) - Gauge 06:07, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)

There is a slight inconsistency here. Either the intervals removed at each step are the "middle quarter of the remaining intervals" or they are centred on a/2^n. But they cannot be both. The first leads to measure of 0.5, the second to measure of 0.53557368... --Henrygb 17:17, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing. I noticed that the intervals you gave seemed to be off, so I corrected them (hopefully :-)). - Gauge 01:42, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
You are right - somehow I multipled 3 by 2 and got 12. Thanks --Henrygb 22:53, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
