State a version of the Baire category theorem for a complete metric space. Let TT be the set of real numbers xx with the property that, for each positive integer nn, there exist integers pp and qq with q2q \geqslant 2 such that

0<xpq<1qn.0<\left|x-\frac{p}{q}\right|<\frac{1}{q^{n}} .

Is TT an open subset of R\mathbb{R} ? Is TT a dense subset of R\mathbb{R} ? Justify your answers.
