Default Re: Is 0.999999.... (infinite) equal to 1?

[another useless post, maybe]

In my opinion, the moment you put an end to the series 0.999999......9... , it ceases to be equal to one.

When we say the series goes infinite, it equals one!

Now, in theory, we may say that since this series will never terminate, probably we'll never reach 1. In that case, 0.9999... continues to approach 1 but never becomes equal to 1.

What do you all have to say about it?

Anyone wants to discuss the concept of Infinity here?
