Set Theory
Quote | Set theory is the mathematical theory of well-determined collections, called sets, of objects that are called members, or elements, of the set. |
Now what, Johnny? |
Joe,
You can't possibly be this are stupid.
A collection is simply a group of things. See definition 2: Quote | col·lec·tion /kəˈlekSH(ə)n/ noun
1. the action or process of collecting someone or something.
2. a group of things or people. |
Suppose I want to discuss the set of all integers between 10 and 10 trillion trillion trillion. I don't need to go out and "collect" each one of those integers. Nor do I need to generate each one by computer. I can simply specify the set informally: Quote | the set of all integers between 10 and 10 trillion trillion trillion. |
Or formally: Quote | {∀x∈ℕ : x > 10 ∧ x < 10^37} |
|
Get stuffed. Again you FAILed to show how you can collect infinite elements.
Your set 10 - 10 trillion trillion trillion is FINITE, you ignorant asshole. |
I see my point sailed right over Joe's head. Again.
It's trivial to make the set infinite. Just specify it informally like this: Quote | the set of all integers greater than 10 |
Or formally like this: |
You are a conman and a strawman humper. That is the only point that you have.
You cannot collect infinite elements. It is impossible.
