So to perform a meaningful check that the set of nice perio For example, the open interval $(-\pi,\pi)$ has the same cardinality as $\mathbb R$. To see this, take the interval and bend it into a semicircle, then balance it on the real line. To find the point on the real line corresponding to a given number in the interval/on the semicircle, $\theta \in (-\pi,\pi)$, draw the straight line emanating from the centre of the circle at an angle $\theta$ with the vertical; it hits $\theta$ on the semicircle and its partner $x$ on the real line. Explicitly, the map takes $\theta \mapsto \tan \theta$. -![alt text](/stereographic circle.jpg) +
