the realizability of mathematical concepts. Real numbers are mathematical, so they should have a counterpart in real world. What ever that counterpart is, it's toils the problem of uncountability. But I think your answer is the best shot. Mohsen Ravanbakhsh

' theorem says no. You might say we can not measure such distance because when we're talking about elements of space there should be nothing smaller than it... So what is that distance? How you gonna make a discrete space when it's intuitively continuous. Mohsen Ravanbakhsh
