Basic concepts in set theory

Unordered pair

In mathematics, an unordered pair or pair set is a set of the form {a, b}, i.e. a set having two elements a and b with no particular relation between them, where {a, b} = {b, a}. In contrast, an ordered pair (a, b) has a as its first element and b as its second element, which means (a, b) ≠ (b, a). While the two elements of an ordered pair (a, b) need not be distinct, modern authors only call {a, b} an unordered pair if a ≠ b.But for a few authors a singleton is also considered an unordered pair, although today, most would say that {a, a} is a multiset. It is typical to use the term unordered pair even in the situation where the elements a and b could be equal, as long as this equality has not yet been established. A set with precisely two elements is also called a 2-set or (rarely) a binary set. An unordered pair is a finite set; its cardinality (number of elements) is 2 or (if the two elements are not distinct) 1. In axiomatic set theory, the existence of unordered pairs is required by an axiom, the axiom of pairing. More generally, an unordered n-tuple is a set of the form {a1, a2,... an}. (Wikipedia).

What are Disjoint Sets? | Set Theory

What are disjoint sets? That is the topic of discussion in today's lesson! Two sets, A and B, are disjoint if and only if A intersect B is equal to the empty set. This means that two sets are disjoint if and only if they have no elements in common. This is the same as the two sets being "m

Python: Sets and Set Builder

Sets allow you to store multiple values in one place, but unlike lists, sets are unordered and there are no duplicates. In this video, we will use IDLE to enter some set expressions and see the results. We will also learn about set-builder notation to construct sets mathematically. Get

What is the Symmetric Difference of 2 Sets?

What is the symmetric difference of 2 sets? In this video we go over the symmetric difference of sets, explaining it in a couple ways including what is probably the briefest way. The symmetric difference of two sets A and B is (A union B)-(A intersect B). If you need to know what the defin
