Examples of Inductive Sets

Inductive Set as Subset of Real Numbers

A specific instance of such an inductive set is defined by some authors as follows:

Let $I$ be a subset of the real numbers $\R$.


Then $I$ is an inductive set if and only if:

$1 \in I$

and

$x \in I \implies \paren {x + 1} \in I$
