Some doubt regarding space filling curve.












0














Peano's idea was to define a sequence of curves that visit ever more points than the previous. Hence the limiting curve will visit a dense set of points in the square.



My doubt: we need to show that the limiting curve is onto, not to show it has dense range.



My thought: limiting curve will be continuous, continuous image of a compact set is compact, hence the range will be closed. A closed, dense set will be the whole space and hence the map will be onto.



Question: Why the limiting curve exists and continuous?

    That's true. So what's the question?
