2. Algebra of sets - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra_of_sets

   In mathematics, the algebra of sets, not to be confused with the mathematical structure of an algebra of sets, defines the properties and laws of sets, the set-theoretic operations of union, intersection, and complementation and the relations of set equality and set inclusion. It also provides systematic procedures for evaluating expressions ...

3. List of set identities and relations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_set_identities_and...

   This article lists mathematical properties and laws of sets, involving the set-theoretic operations of union, intersection, and complementation and the relations of set equality and set inclusion. It also provides systematic procedures for evaluating expressions, and performing calculations, involving these operations and relations.

4. Venn diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venn_diagram

   A Venn diagram is a widely used diagram style that shows the logical relation between sets, popularized by John Venn (1834–1923) in the 1880s. The diagrams are used to teach elementary set theory , and to illustrate simple set relationships in probability , logic , statistics , linguistics and computer science .

5. Mathematical diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_diagram

   A Venn diagram is a representation of mathematical sets: a mathematical diagram representing sets as circles, with their relationships to each other expressed through their overlapping positions, so that all possible relationships between the sets are shown. [4] The Venn diagram is constructed with a collection of simple closed curves drawn in ...

6. Union (set theory) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_(set_theory)

   Intersection (set theory) – Set of elements common to all of some sets; Iterated binary operation – Repeated application of an operation to a sequence; List of set identities and relations – Equalities for combinations of sets; Naive set theory – Informal set theories; Symmetric difference – Elements in exactly one of two sets

7. Symmetric difference - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_difference

   Venn diagram of = . The symmetric difference is equivalent to the union of both relative complements, that is: [1] = (), The symmetric difference can also be expressed using the XOR operation ⊕ on the predicates describing the two sets in set-builder notation:

8. Set (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_(mathematics)

   A set of polygons in an Euler diagram This set equals the one depicted above since both have the very same elements.. In mathematics, a set is a collection of different [1] things; [2] [3] [4] these things are called elements or members of the set and are typically mathematical objects of any kind: numbers, symbols, points in space, lines, other geometrical shapes, variables, or even other ...

9. Inclusion–exclusion principle - Wikipedia

   Venn diagram showing the union of sets A and B as everything not in white. In combinatorics, the inclusion–exclusion principle is a counting technique which generalizes the familiar method of obtaining the number of elements in the union of two finite sets; symbolically expressed as
