  Aleph number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the branch of mathematics known as set theory, the aleph numbers are a series of numbers used to represent the cardinality (or size) of infinite sets.
The aleph numbers differ from the infinity (∞) commonly found in algebra and calculus.
Alephs measure the sizes of sets; infinity, on the other hand, is commonly defined as an extreme limit of the real number line, or an extremal point of the extended real number line.

 Internet-Based Collaborative Software Design
Aleph One is an effort to improve the Macintosh computer game Marathon Infinity.
Although any three-year-old game is considered out of date and unexciting, amateur programmers are often interested in getting a peek at any game’s source code, just to see what programming techniques were used.
