Summary/Abstract: A real is computable if it is the limit of a computable, increasing, computably converging sequence of rationals. Omitting the restriction that the sequence converges computably we arrive at the notion of computably enumerable (c.e.) real, that is, the limit of a computable, increasing, converging sequence of rationals.
