The type of real numbers is a locally (-1)-connected? Hausdorff sober? Archimedean ordered field with a compact? real unit interval? .
There are many other different types which are called real numbers in the literature, many of which are do not satisfy the same properties as listed above for the real numbers. These include:
localic real numbers?
MacNeille real numbers? or Dedekind-MacNeille real numbers
real unit interval? based real numbers
pre-algebra real numbers, real numbers as usually defined in school mathematics.
Euclidean real numbers? or Escardo-Simpson real numbers
The various types of real numbers defined by Peter Freyd using various definitions of the co-algebraic real unit interval.
Dedekind real closed intervals , where the Dedekind real numbers are the located Dedekind real closed intervals, and the Cauchy computable real numbers are the Dedekind real closed intervals with alocator.
