Question
Find a positive number smaller than `2^(1/1000)`. Justify
Solution
We know `1/2` = 0.5
`1/2^2` = (0.5)2 = 0.25
`1/2^3` = (0.5)3 = 0.125
`1/2^4` = (0.5)4 = 0.0625
`2^(1/1000)` = (0.5)1000 = 0
There will not be a positive number smaller than 0.
So there will not be a +ve number smaller than `2^(1/1000)`
