Article claimed Q was both convex and totally disconnected. Deleted and added new example for not connected and convex. The rationals are not convex in the reals. Every convex set in the reals is connected. |

Line 147:
Let {{math|''Y'' ⊆ ''X''}}. The subspace {{mvar|Y}} is a convex set if for each pair of points {{math|''a'', ''b''}} in {{mvar|Y}} such that {{math|''a'' ≤ ''b''}}, the interval {{math|[''a'', ''b''] {{=}} {''x'' ∈ ''X'' {{!}} ''a'' ≤ ''x'' ≤ ''b''} }} is contained in {{mvar|Y}}. That is, {{mvar|Y}} is convex if and only if for all {{math|''a'', ''b''}} in {{mvar|Y}}, {{math|''a'' ≤ ''b''}} implies {{math|[''a'', ''b''] ⊆ ''Y''}}.
A convex set is '''not''' connected in general: a counter-example is given by the
