I want to find out from you (WM)
what "not in contact with" means.
For a point
in the boundary but not in the set,
is it "not in contact with" the set?
Is it "in contact with" the set?
Point x′ is in the boundary of set S
iff
each interval [x,x″] such that
x′ is in its interior, x < x′ < x″,
holds points in S and points not.in S
For S = [-1,0) and x = 0
each [x,x″] such that x < 0 < x″
holds points in [-1,0) and points not.in [-1,0)
0 is in the boundary of [-1,0)
Is 0 "in contact with" [-1,0) ?
