Study Notes
Set Definitions and Notation
- A set is a collection of objects, called members or elements.
- Two sets are equal if they contain the exact same elements.
- Sets can be defined by listing elements inside curly brackets {} or by a rule {x: rule}.
- The rule specifies the condition that an element must satisfy to be part of the set (e.g., {x: x is an integer and -1 < x < 1}).
- x ∈ A means x is a member of set A.
- x ∉ A means x is not a member of set A.
- A ⊂ B means set A is a subset of set B (every element of A is also in B).
- A ⊄ B means set A is not a subset of set B (at least one element of A is not in B).
- A = B means set A and set B have exactly the same elements.
- A ⇒ B means if A is true then B is true.
- A ⇔ B means A is true if and only if B is true.
Important Sets
- Natural numbers (N): Positive integers {1, 2, 3, ...}
- Integers (Z): All whole numbers {...-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3,...}
- Real numbers (R): Include all rational and irrational numbers.
- Complex numbers (C): Numbers of the form x + iy, where x and y are real numbers, and i is the imaginary unit.
Set Relationships
- The empty set (∅) is a set with no elements.
- Sets can be related by implication (⇒) and equivalence (⇔).
- A statement (1) implies statement (2) (1 ⇒ 2) if the truth of statement (1) guarantees the truth of statement (2).
- If both (1) implies (2) and (2) implies (1) (1 ⇔ 2), (1) holds if and only if (2) holds.
- If x₁ = x₂, then x₁ is in the set {x₁} and x₂ is in the set{x₂}.
