For each , the coordinate projection
is continuous when has the discrete topology: if , then .
If were a continuous path, then would be a continuous map from the connected interval to a discrete space, so it would be constant. This holds for every , and therefore itself must be constant. Since contains distinct points, no path joins every pair. Hence
indeed, every path component is a singleton.
