'''Georg Cantor''' (1845-1918) was a [[German]] [[mathematician]], best know for his contributions to the field of [[Set_theory|Set Theory]].  Perhaps his most important contribution, is his technique of [[Diagonalization|Cantorian Diagonalization]], a method of showing that the [[real numbers]] are larger in [[cardinality]] than the [[integers]].  He is also known for his [[Cantor_set|Cantor Set]]<ref>http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CantorSet.html</ref> and [[Cantor Intersection Theorem]].
