Theorem	rpnnen1 12900	One half of rpnnen 16156, where we show an injection from the real numbers to sequences of rational numbers. Specifically, we map a real number 𝑥 to the sequence (𝐹‘𝑥):ℕ⟶ℚ (see rpnnen1lem6 12899) such that ((𝐹‘𝑥)‘𝑘) is the largest rational number with denominator 𝑘 that is strictly less than 𝑥. In this manner, we get a monotonically increasing sequence that converges to 𝑥, and since each sequence converges to a unique real number, this mapping from reals to sequences of rational numbers is injective. Note: The ℕ and ℚ existence hypotheses provide for use with either nnex 12155 and qex 12878, or nnexALT 12151 and qexALT 12881. The proof should not be modified to use any of those 4 theorems.
