Hi Herb,

If I am wrong about the axiom of choice I would loved to be corrected. My concept of it came from a math professor in lectures; I have never seen any written description of it in a textbook.

Tell me, what is your understanding of the axiom of choice?

>>>Set of integers being infinite does not require the axiom of choice
