Past exam of the algebra, analysis and differential equations 1 course of the University of Oxford / 2011 / 4 / iii / Solution

A path-connected space $S$ has, for every pair $z_0,z_1\in S$, a continuous path $\gamma :[0,1]\to S$ with $\gamma (0)=z_0$ and $\gamma (1)=z_1$. Every path-connected space is a connected space, because a separation of the target would pull a joining path apart and contradict connectedness of an interval.
