A set is a collection of objects …
Each object in a set is called an element…
“U is an element of the periodic table” (dat be some good grammer)
A set can be notated in three different ways:
1) a description of the set… “The Periodic Table of Elements”
2) Roster notation (a list of all elements in the set)… {Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium,…}
3) Set-builder notation (a specific format for describing a set)… {x|x is an element in the periodic table}
The number of unique elements in a set is called its Cardinality Skdjfhs = 118 ish The order of the elements is unimportant
Sets can be empty... { } or contain no elements (“the empty set”) Sets can also be infinite… (more about that later!)
Two sets that have the same elements are equal… =
Two sets that have the same number of elements are equivalent… xjbvz Is Equivalent To
