If $\mu: A \longrightarrow \left\{0,\infty\right\}$ is a set function where $A$ is the set of all left open right closed intervals in $(0,1]$ defined as: $ \mu\bigl((a,b]\bigr) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l l} b-a & \quad \text{if $0\lt a\lt b\leq 1$ and $a\neq 0 $ }\\ +\infty & \quad \text{otherwise}\\ \end{array} \right.$
then show that $\mu$ is not countably additive.
It is obviously finitely additive as I could show, but I'm not too sure how to show it will fail for countable additivity.
I tried writing $A = (0,1] = \bigcup_{i=1}^{\infty} ({1\over i+1},{1\over i}]$. Then $ \mu(A) =1$ but can I conclude that the RHS is not 1?
Could anyone help?
