    (a) For each integer there is a smaller real number, it is equivalent to the expression: ∀x∈Z, ∃y∈R, so that, real number y is less than the integer number x. (Z represents the set of integers numbers and R represents the set of real numbers)

    (b) There is a real number that is smaller than each integer, it is equivalent to the expression: ∃y∈R, such that, ∀x∈Z, that number y has to be less than integer number x. (Z represents the set of integers numbers and R represents the set of real numbers)
