What is the cardinality of the following set?

What is the cardinality of the following set: ${f: mathbb{R} rightarrow {a+bsqrt[3]4 | a,b in mathbb{Q}}}$?



Let $S = {f: mathbb{R} rightarrow {a+bsqrt[3]4 | a,b in mathbb{Q}}}$.



I already show that ${f:mathbb{R}rightarrow{0,1}} subset S$, then $|S| ge |{f:mathbb{R}rightarrow{0,1}}| = 2^c$, and I need to show the rest of the part i.e.: $|S| le 2^c$, then to conclude that the cardinality of the set $S$ is $2^c$. (please correct me if this part is wrong)



But I get stuck, I don't know how to show that $|S| le 2^c$. Can you please help me out? Thanks in advance!

You're looking at the set of functins from $mathbb{R}$ which has size $2^{aleph_0}= mathfrak{c}$ to a countable set (as $|mathbb{Q}^2| = aleph_0$) which by definition has size $(aleph_0)^{2^{aleph_0}} = 2^{mathfrak{c}}$ by standard cardinal arithmetic : $$ 2^mathfrak{c} le aleph_0^{mathfrak{c}} le (2^mathfrak{c})^mathfrak{c} = 2^mathfrak{c}$$

Apolo y la Nueve Musas En la mitología griega, las musas (en griego antiguo μοῦσαι « mousai» ) son, según los escritores más antiguos, las divinidades inspiradoras de las Artes: cada una de ellas está relacionada con ramas artísticas y del conocimiento. Son hijas de Zeus y de Mnemósine, compañeras del séquito de Apolo, dios olímpico de la música y patrón de las bellas artes, quien tuvo romances con cada una de ellas, dejando descendientes. Bajaban a la tierra a susurrar ideas e inspirar a aquellos mortales que las invocaran. En la época más arcaica eran las ninfas inspiradoras de las fuentes, en las cuales eran adoradas. Finalmente, alrededor de los siglos VIII-VII a. C. [ 1 ] ​ prevaleció en todo el territorio de la Hélade la adoración de las nueve Musas, que son Calíope, Clío, Erato, Euterpe, Melpómene, Polimnia, Talía, Terpsícore y Urania.
