It means a number that is higher than any expressible number. If you say 1000..Inf, it means numbers that start at 1000, and go up forever, never ending. It doesn't include things like 50, or 172, or 42, etc. It certainly doesn't mean "all possible values". For words(Inf), it means you keep making words forever, but that isn't because infinity is "all possible values", it is because you never reach infinity. Curt
