I have been reading this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_additivity#Additive_.28or_finitely_additive.29_set_functions
and, in the main, understanding it although there are some aspects of it that I still struggle with.
But, I really want to better understand it is at least just a couple of different examples of mathematical functions u defined on an algebra of sets A with values in [−∞, +∞] that are NOT additive complete with explanations of why they are not additive if that why isn't self-evident.
Anyone?
