Real space and time are discrete, therefore any physical formula set by continuous function, approximate.
Mathematical analogy: the Poisson distribution

$P(k,\,\lambda)=\frac{\lambda^k e^{-\lambda}}{k!}$

it can be used as good approach of binomial distribution

$P(n,\,k)=C^k_np^k(1-p)^{n-k}$

if n it is great, and p the small; λ = np.
The physical formulas set by continuous functions, so exact that illusion of their fundamental nature is created. The highest accuracy is reached thanking very much to a considerable quantity of very small fundamental elements of space and time.
