  1. Continuous vs Discrete Variables - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 14, 2025 · Both discrete and continuous variables generally do have changing values—and a discrete variable can vary continuously with time. I am quite aware that discrete variables are those …

  2. Difference between continuity and uniform continuity

    Jan 27, 2014 · To understand the difference between continuity and uniform continuity, it is useful to think of a particular example of a function that's continuous on $\mathbb R$ but not uniformly …

  4. The definition of continuous function in topology

    Mar 7, 2013 · 22 I am self-studying general topology, and I am curious about the definition of the continuous function. I know that the definition derives from calculus, but why do we define it like …

  5. What does it mean that "every metric is continuous"?

    Jun 11, 2025 · 6 "Every metric is continuous" means that a metric $d$ on a space $X$ is a continuous function in the topology on the product $X \times X$ determined by $d$.

  6. Topological properties preserved by continuous maps

    You'll find topological properties with indication of whether they are preserved by (various kinds of) continuous maps or not (such as open maps, closed maps, quotient maps, perfect maps, etc.). For …

  7. real analysis - Continuous mapping on a compact metric space is ...

    Jun 12, 2016 · Basic real analysis should be a source of at least some intuition (which is misleading at times, granted). Can you think of some compact sets in $\mathbf R$? Are continuous functions on …

  8. real analysis - How do I show that all continuous periodic functions ...

    Apr 30, 2014 · Show that every continuous periodic function is bounded and uniformly continuous. For boundedness, I first tried to show that since the a periodic function is continuous, it is continuous for …
