Ccinfty
Ccinfty is a fictional framework commonly used in theoretical discussions and teaching materials to illustrate the interaction of continuity and infinity in mathematics and computer science. The name evokes the mathematical notion of smooth, infinitely differentiable functions (often denoted C∞) while signaling an engagement with infinite processes. In most depictions, Ccinfty is not a concrete software project or standard, but a conceptual construct designed to explore ideas rather than to implement them.
In its hypothetical form, Ccinfty envisions a formal language and semantic model capable of describing systems
Core components often discussed alongside Ccinfty include a type system that accommodates infinite objects, an operational
Usage and reception of the concept are primarily pedagogical. It appears in advanced textbooks, lecture notes,
