[A puzzle which requires knowing what countable/uncountable mean]
Let N be the set of naturals: {1,2,…}.
Suppose F is a subset of the power-set of N (i.e. F is a set of subsets of N), such that for any two distinct sets A,B∈F, either A⊂B or B⊂A.
Basically F is a chain of sets, each containing the previous one.
Is there an F which is uncountable?
