Abstract: 
The author examines philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce's Cambridge Conferences (CC) theory of the continuum. According to the author, theory integrates Peirce's philosophy and his mathematics, rather than trying to twist ready-made mathematical ideas to make room for his philosophy. The author notes that the CC theory is defined by two claims about the discreta in a continuum.
