Statement
Theorem	nn0ge2m1nnALT 12901	Alternate proof of nn0ge2m1nn 12512: If a nonnegative integer is greater than or equal to two, the integer decreased by 1 is a positive integer. This version is proved using eluz2 12799, a theorem for upper sets of integers, which are defined later than the positive and nonnegative integers. This proof is, however, much shorter than the proof of nn0ge2m1nn 12512. (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens, 1-Aug-2018.) (New usage is discouraged.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)

5.4.12  Well-ordering principle for bounded-below sets of integers

Theorem	rpnnen1 12942	One half of rpnnen 16195, 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 12941) 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 12192 and qex 12920, or nnexALT 12188 and qexALT 12923. The proof should not be modified to use any of those 4 theorems.

Theorem	cnref1o 12944*	There is a natural one-to-one mapping from (ℝ × ℝ) to ℂ, where we map ⟨𝑥, 𝑦⟩ to (𝑥 + (i · 𝑦)).
