Topic: converting numbers between ℕ, ℚ and ℝ
Jia Ming Lim (Jul 13 2020 at 19:35):
Hi, I'm Jia Ming. This sounds a little silly but I have no clue how to deduce 0<↑n
from 0<(n : ℕ)
:( I'm stuck on the Real Numbers Game proving that the rationals are dense in . I've almost got it but what seems like the simplest most obvious thing ever stopped me. It would be super helpful to know where I can learn exactly how Lean handles the conversion of numbers between types.

You shouldn't be playing that level, it's not ready :-)
Kevin Buzzard (Jul 13 2020 at 19:36):
But maybe norm_cast
will help.

Ohhh no wonder, I was wondering why a lot of things seems to be missing
Jia Ming Lim (Jul 13 2020 at 19:37):
Thanks! I'll try that
Kevin Buzzard (Jul 13 2020 at 19:37):
The first 7 levels are ready.

This is exactly what will be one of the topics in the workshop tomorrow!

and "max" is ready: http://wwwf.imperial.ac.uk/~buzzard/xena/max_minigame/
Jia Ming Lim (Jul 13 2020 at 19:38):
Omg yeah I played that, so super fun
Kevin Buzzard (Jul 13 2020 at 19:39):
I'm a bit busy this week, but we'll have an abs
minigame soon :-) We'll then get on to limits.

all these new games will kill my research in these next weeks :D
Jia Ming Lim (Jul 13 2020 at 20:39):
