Write and enumerate . Each injective function is determined by the finite tuple . Thus these functions form a subset of the finite Cartesian product . A finite Cartesian power of a countable set is countable: for example, group the index tuples by the maximum of their coordinates, obtaining a countable union of countable sets consisting of finite groups.
There are also infinitely many such injective functions, sincedefines pairwise distinct examples. Therefore is a countably infinite set.
