Like $\RP^n$, $\CP^n$ is a CW complex, built inductively
by taking $\CC^n$ and welding its boundary onto $\CP^{n-1}$
by taking $\CC^n$ and welding its boundary onto $\CP^{n-1}$.
The difference is that as topological spaces,
\[ \CC^n \cong \RR^{2n} \cong D^{2n}. \]
Thus, we attach the cells $D^0$, $D^2$, $D^4$ and so on

The space $Y$ is simply connected, thus the lifting criterion
is trivially satisfied, but the function $f:Y\to S^1$ which
collapses the sine curve vertically does not lift to a function
$\tilde f:Y\to\RR$. The lifting theorem does not apply here,

You can show (and it's intuitively obvious) that the bijection
\[ \Phi \colon \pi_1(S^1) \leftrightarrow \ZZ \]

additive group structure $\ZZ$.

Since it's a bijection, this leads us to conclude $\pi_1(S^1) \cong \ZZ$.

Let $X$ and $Y$ be topological spaces and $f \colon (X, x_0) \to (Y, y_0)$.
Recall that we defined a group homomorphism

The idea is that one loop of the eight is $a$,
