Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to study the limit points of the sets S and T. In particular we will show that S is a closed set and that the closure \({\bar T}\) of T contains U. Even more than in the previous chapter, we will notice that while a great deal is known about the set 5, very little is known about the set T. Thus we still do not know if the only limit points of T are S-numbers.
