Abstract: Given a compact set $K$ in the plane, which does not contain any triple of points forming a vertical and a horizontal segment, and a map $finC(K)$, we give a construction of functions $g,hinC(mathbbR)$ such that $f(x,y)=g(x)+h(y)$ for all $(x,y)inK$. This provides a constructive proof of a part of Sternfeld's theorem on basic embeddings in the plane. In our proof the set $K$ is approximated by a finite set of points.
