text {*
The ``only if'' direction is harder because it requires the
construction of a sequence of pairwise different elements of
an infinite set @{text S}. The idea is to construct a sequence of
non-empty and infinite subsets of @{text S} obtained by successively
removing elements of @{text S}.

For any function with infinite domain and finite range
there is some element that is the image of infinitely
many domain elements. In particular, any infinite sequence
of elements from a finite set contains some element that
