In each part of this question, you are asked to give an example of something, and explain why
it is an example. You may use all definitions, lemmas, theorems etc. from the lecture notes.
(a) A set ECR with exactly two limit points.

Expert Solution
Step 1: Examples against given statements

(a) Consider here E equals open curly brackets open parentheses negative 1 close parentheses to the power of n open parentheses 1 plus 1 over n close parentheses space colon n space element of straight natural numbers close curly brackets

     Noted that here negative 1 space a n d space 1 are limit points of E .

Because here if write the some elements of E explicitly ,then we have seen that 

 E equals open curly brackets 3 over 2 comma 5 over 4 comma 7 over 6 comma......... close curly brackets union open curly brackets negative 2 comma negative 4 over 3 comma negative 6 over 5 comma....... close curly brackets

for 1st part observed that sequential elements approaches to 1 spaceand for 2nd part approaches to negative 1.

In other words ,for any nbd containg  1 or -1 , we get infinitely many points in the nbd.

But for any other points we must get at least one nbd such that there is no point of E in that nbd except 1 space o r space minus 1 .
