For example:
- The set is almost for any in , because only finitely many natural numbers are less than .
- The set of prime numbers is not almost , because there are infinitely many natural numbers that are not prime numbers.
- The set of transcendental numbers are almost , because the
- The Cantor set is uncountably infinite, but has Lebesgue measure zero.[2] So almost all real numbers in (0, 1) are members of the complement of the Cantor set.
