4 Concept Maps

Decision flowchart showing when a collection becomes a set based on whether it is well-defined

Decision flowchart showing when a collection becomes a set based on whether it is well-defined

The map in words

  • Is it a Collection?
    • Can we clearly decide if an object belongs or doesn't belong?
      • Yes - Well-defined: It is a SET
        • Example: Red flowers
      • No - Not clear: NOT a SET
        • Example: Beautiful flowers

The map in words

  • Set A = {1, 2, 3, 4}
    • Element 2
      • 2 ∈ A
    • Element 3
      • 3 ∈ A
    • Element 5
      • 5 ∉ A

The map in words

  • Set {a, b, c, a, b}
    • Step 1: Identify unique elements
      • a, b, c appear
        • Step 2: Write each element once
          • Result: {a, b, c}
            • Order does NOT matter
    • Different order: {c, a, b}
      • Still same set
