## Overview
Suppose $S$ is a nonempty set of real numbers and suppose there are numbers $L$ and $U$ such that $L \leq x \leq U$ for all $x \in S$. Then $S$ is said to be **bounded below** by $L$ and **bounded above** by $U$. The number $L$ is said to be a **lower bound** for $S$; the number $U$ is said to be an **upper bound** for $S$.

## Greatest Lower Bounds
A number $B$ is called a **greatest lower bound** (or **infimum**) of a nonempty set $S$ if $B$ is a lower bound for $S$ and no number greater than $B$ is a lower bound for $S$. This is denoted as $B = \mathop{\text{glb}} S$ or $B = \mathop{\text{inf}} S$.

Let $\varnothing \subset S \subseteq \mathbb{R}$. What is a greatest upper bound of $S$?
