I would like to produce an illustration for Cantor's diagonal argument, something like a centered enumeration of $4$ or $5$ decimal expansions $x_i = .d_i1d_i2d_i3 ldots$, and then insert a diagonal oval circumscribing $d_11, d_22, d_33, ldots$.

What is a good way to do this?

I have come up with the following, but I'm not sure it will allow me to insert the diagonal oval? (which I don't know how to do.)

Any constructive comments are appreciated.

I don't know if the latex documentation will format properly as this is my first question post on this site.

Thank you.
