  2. Set-builder notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set-builder_notation

    Set-builder notation can be used to describe a set that is defined by a predicate, that is, a logical formula that evaluates to true for an element of the set, and false otherwise. [2] In this form, set-builder notation has three parts: a variable, a colon or vertical bar separator, and a predicate. Thus there is a variable on the left of the ...

  3. Interval (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In summary, a set of the real numbers is an interval, if and only if it is an open interval, a closed interval, or a half-open interval. [4] [5] A degenerate interval is any set consisting of a single real number (i.e., an interval of the form [a, a]). [6] Some authors include the empty set in this definition.

  4. Naive set theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naive_set_theory

    This notation is called set-builder notation (or "set comprehension", particularly in the context of Functional programming). Some variants of set builder notation are: {x ∈ A | P(x)} denotes the set of all x that are already members of A such that the condition P holds for x.

    Set-builder notation: denotes the set whose elements are listed between the braces, separated by commas. Set-builder notation : if P ( x ) {\displaystyle P(x)} is a predicate depending on a variable x , then both { x : P ( x ) } {\displaystyle \{x:P(x)\}} and { x ∣ P ( x ) } {\displaystyle \{x\mid P(x)\}} denote the set formed by the values ...

  6. Union (set theory) - Wikipedia

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

    The last of these notations refers to the union of the collection {:}, where I is an index set and is a set for every ⁠ ⁠. In the case that the index set I is the set of natural numbers , one uses the notation ⋃ i = 1 ∞ A i {\textstyle \bigcup _{i=1}^{\infty }A_{i}} , which is analogous to that of the infinite sums in series.

  7. List of set classes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_set_classes

    Set 3-1 has three possible versions: [0 1 1 1 2 T], [0 1 1 T E 1], and [0 T T 1 E 1], where the subscripts indicate adjacency intervals. The normal form is the smallest "slice of pie" (shaded) or most compact form, in this case: [0 1 1 1 2 T]. This is a list of set classes, by Forte number. [1]

  8. Interval class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_class

    Interval class Play ⓘ.. In musical set theory, an interval class (often abbreviated: ic), also known as unordered pitch-class interval, interval distance, undirected interval, or "(even completely incorrectly) as 'interval mod 6'" (Rahn 1980, 29; Whittall 2008, 273–74), is the shortest distance in pitch class space between two unordered pitch classes.

  9. Intersection (set theory) - Wikipedia

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

    The reason is as follows: The intersection of the collection is defined as the set (see set-builder notation) = {:,}. If M {\displaystyle M} is empty, there are no sets A {\displaystyle A} in M , {\displaystyle M,} so the question becomes "which x {\displaystyle x} 's satisfy the stated condition?"
