    For every integer, there are an infinite number of real numbers until the next integer. So you can’t make a 1:1 correspondence. They’re both infinite, but this shows that the reals are more infinite. (and yeah, as other people mentioned, it’s the 1:1 correspondence, countability, that matters more than the infinite quantity of the Real numbers)
