Cantor's proof and every proof with Cantor's diagonal method shows that.

 Except for that example list I gave where I proved by induction that it
does not.

Your problem is you assume you can compute the nth value from the value of n, but that requires you master algorithm include an infinite number of algorithms in itself to choose from to build that number.
What you induction fails to note is that it just assumes the availability of the infinite set of construction algorithms to the finite master algorithm. THAT requires a contradiction in terms, so can't be done.
