3. Topology: Short Questions and MCQs

   We are going to add short questions and MCQ for Topology. This is a compulsory subject in MSc and BS Mathematics in most of the universities of Pakistan. The author of this page is Dr. Atiq ur Rehman. This page will be updated periodically.

. Then what are the differences between discrete topology, indiscreet topology and confinite topology on $X$
6. ?
7. Let $X$
be a non-empty finite set. Then what is the difference between discrete and cofinite toplogy on $X$
8. .
9. Let $\tau$
be a cofinite toplogy on $N$. Then write any three element of $\tau$
