Everything about Dense-in-itself totally explained

In mathematics, a subset A of a topological space is said to be dense-in-itself if A contains no isolated points. Note that if the subset A is also a closed set, then A will be a perfect set. Conversely, every perfect set is dense-in-itself.
   A simple example of a set which is dense-in-itself but not closed (and hence not a perfect set) is the subset of irrational numbers. This set is dense-in-itself because every neighborhood of an irrational number x contains at least one other irrational number y eq x. On the other hand, this set of irrationals isn't closed because every rational number lies in its closure. For similar reasons, the set of rational numbers is also dense-in-itself but not closed.
