A real number is said to be computable if there exists an algorithm that yields its digits.
Because there are only countably many algorithms, but an uncountable number of reals, most real numbers are not computable.
Real numbers may be rational or irrational; algebraic or transcendental; and positive, negative, or zero.

 NodeWorks - Encyclopedia: Line number
In computing, a line number is a way of specifying a point in a file by enumerating each line in the file by a number.
In older styles of unstructured programming, line numbers were used to demarcate specific code points where execution was supposed to branch to - in essence, goto commands.
However, improper use of gotos often led to so-called spaghetti code.

 Positive and negative numbers
Positive numbers are any numbers greater than zero, for example: 1, 2.9, 3.14159, 40000, and 0.0005.
The absolute value of a number is always a positive number (or zero).
We do not consider zero to be a positive or negative number.

 Howstuffworks "What do digits in phone numbers mean?"
The biggest problem with this approach is that a lot of the numbers in a particular block may not be used by the company that owns them, but they are unavailable for use by anyone else.
Some numbers, such as those that would start with 0,1 or 911, are unavailable for use.
For example, HowStuffWorks moved into new offices in the summer of 2000, but our main phone number did not change.

 MathSteps: Grade 7: Absolute Value: What Is It?
The number line is not just a way to show distance from zero, it's also a good way to graph absolute value.
An easy way to write these kinds of inequalities to show that their values fall between two numbers is:
Absolute value describes the distance of a number on the number line from 0 without considering which direction from zero the number lies.

 Rename in Higher Terms
Since the denominator is multiplied by 4 then the numerator must be multiplied by 4 to make an equivalent fraction.
In the example below, both the numerator and denominator are multiplied by 4.
Although there are more parts in the second number line the parts are smaller, making the two fractions equivalent.

 Solving Absolute Value Equations Lesson
When you take the absolute value of a number, you always end up with a positive number (or zero).
These equations always work this way: to be able to remove the bars, you have to isolate the absolute value onto one side, and then split the equation into two cases.
On the first interval, both absolute values have negative arguments, so I'll need to change the signs on both of them when I take the bars off.

 Science News Online - Ivars Peterson's MathLand - 11/16/96
Notice that the numbers down the left side, 1 2 6 24 120, are the factorial numbers: 1 (1 x 2) (1 x 2 x 3) (1 x 2 x 3 x 4) (1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5) or, in general, (1 x 2 x 3 x … x n).
Consider, for example, the sequence of counting numbers: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16.
In general, taking out the nth number to start with gives a sequence of nth powers in the end.

 Extended real number line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This limiting behaviour is similar to the limit of a function at a real number, except that there is no "number" to which x is approaching.
In this topology, a set U is a neighborhood of +∞ if and only if it contains a set {x : x > a} for some real number a, and analogously for the neighborhoods of −∞.
Without allowing functions to take on "infinite values", such essential results as the monotone convergence theorem and the dominated convergence theorem would not make sense.

 Decimal Numbers
Each digit in relation to the decimal point has a particular value.
As with all other real numbers, decimals can be read on a number line.
Since decimal is a base 10 number, each place has a value that is either ten times larger than the one on its right, or ten times smaller than the one on its left.

 Number Line
Absolute value is the distance a number is from zero on a number line.
If a number is to the left of a number on the number line, it is less than the other number.
When comparing numbers the order in which they are placed on the number line will determine if it is greater than or less than another number.

 Negative Number
The number is known as the coordinate of the point; the point is known as the graph of the number.
The origin divides the number line into two regions: the region to the right of the origin is the positive side; the region to the left of the origin is the negative side.
On a number line, every number is paired with a point.

 The Real Number System
The numbers corresponding to these positions are called "irrational" (because they are not ratios of integers).
Since the Real Numbers were invented to account for all possible measurements along a line, it is not surprising that we can understand a lot about them in terms of a picture of such a line.
The key points are the Origin (which corresponds to the number 0), and the point one unit away in the "positive" direction (which corresponds to the number 1).
