10 Dimension[0YH]
Let \((X,d)\) be a metric space. Let in the following \(K\) a compact non-empty subset of \(X\), and \(N(𝜌)\) the minimum number of balls of radius \(𝜌\) that are needed to cover \(K\). 1

Note that this definition depends a priori on the choice of the distance, i.e. \(N=N(𝜌,K,d)\) and \(\dim =\dim (K,d)\). See in particular [0YZ].
