Expert's answer

We consider the set RK. That is the all open intervals together with intervals of the form(a,b)∖K where K=1n:nZ+ This space is connected as there are no open sets B and C such that RKBC,RKB,RKC,RKBC= but notpath-connected as there is no continous path lying in the set joining 2 arbitrary points in the set\text{We consider the set RK.
