  2. Subset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset

    The set {x: x is a prime number greater than 10} is a proper subset of {x: x is an odd number greater than 10} The set of natural numbers is a proper subset of the set of rational numbers; likewise, the set of points in a line segment is a proper subset of the set of points in a line.

  3. Integer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer

    The set of natural numbers is a subset of , which in turn is a subset of the set of all rational numbers, itself a subset of the real numbers. [ a ] Like the set of natural numbers, the set of integers Z {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} } is countably infinite .

  4. 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 ...

  5. 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.

  6. Partition of a set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_of_a_set

    A set of stamps partitioned into bundles: No stamp is in two bundles, no bundle is empty, and every stamp is in a bundle. The 52 partitions of a set with 5 elements. A colored region indicates a subset of X that forms a member of the enclosing partition. Uncolored dots indicate single-element subsets.

  7. Cantor's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantor's_theorem

    Counting the empty set as a subset, a set with elements has a total of subsets, and the theorem holds because > for all non-negative integers. Much more significant is Cantor's discovery of an argument that is applicable to any set, and shows that the theorem holds for infinite sets also.

  8. Subset sum problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem

    The subset sum problem (SSP) is a decision problem in computer science. In its most general formulation, there is a multiset of integers and a target-sum , and the question is to decide whether any subset of the integers sum to precisely . [1] The problem is known to be NP-complete.

  9. Infinite set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_set

    The set of all integers, {..., −1, 0, 1, 2, ...} is a countably infinite set. The set of all even integers is also a countably infinite set, even if it is a proper subset of the integers. [3] The set of all rational numbers is a countably infinite set as there is a bijection to the set of integers. [3]
