Continuous Functions and Connected Graphs.
Burgess, C. E.
American Mathematical Monthly, v97 n4 p337-39 Apr 1990
Discussed is the tendency of students to equate the concepts of continuity and connected graphs based on their lack of an understanding of such concepts as limit points, closed sets, and connected sets. Included is a theorem with three lemmas with their proofs. (KR)
