Here is an example of diagonalization

Diag = 159
AntiDiag = 260 <<<<<<<NEW SEQUENCE NOT ON THE LIST!
YOU ALL THINK THIS WORKS ON THE LIST OF COMPUTABLE REALS!
DON’T YOU!!!
Gee it works for 159, must work in the infinite case too, who cares if there’s
no new digit sequence that can be formed.
You’re all DIM! How can you form a new digit sequence when they’re all
computed up to infinite length?
Or as George Greene puts it, they’re all computed up to ALL (infinite) FINITE lengths.
And as George Greene puts it there’s a new digit sequence at some FINITE point.
Well I can’t see it.

As usual, it’s far from clear what you’re on about.
However, the computable reals are countable, so one could hardly expect
a diagonalisation argument to show that they’re not, if that’s where
you’re coming from.

You can’t find a new sequence using diagonalization?

I can compute the list of all computable reals. There’s just some numbers that show
up blank.
It’s trivial to compute a list that covers every digit sequence to all (infinite) finite lengths.

You’re begging the question.

No, you can’t.

Delete "(infinite)", and your statement is correct. There is no such
thing as an infinite finite length though, so inserting the word
"infinite" there makes no sense.

How about, all possible digit sequences are computable to all, as in an infinite
amount of, finite lengths.

Here you go:
1 000000
2 31415
3 2818
4 141
5 22
6 7
It’s not finished yet! Next digit is the 7th 0 on the first number.
