Proverbs

This document defines and provides examples of several key set theory and logic terms: - Proverbs are sayings that can substitute for verbs or phrases and convey meaning through comparisons. Examples are given. - A joint set is a group of parallel geological formations. Disjoint sets have no elements in common. The universal set contains all relevant elements of a problem. - Set operations like union, intersection, subset, and complement are defined. A union combines sets, intersection contains elements shared by sets, a subset includes all elements of another set, and a complement contains elements not in the original set.

PROVERBS-a word that can substitute for a verb or verb phrase

EX.
The old horse in the stable still yearns to run (this means that those who are older
still have things they would like to accomplish.)
A spark can start a fire that burns the entire prairie (this means that a small
problem can snowball into a huge problem that can cause major damage.)
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed
him for a lifetime (this means that teaching people is better in the long run
because it gives them the skills to provide for themselves as opposed to you doing
things for them.)
"All that glitters is not gold (this means that just because something looks good,
does not necessarily mean that it is good.)
"A monkey in silk is a monkey no less (this means that just because someone
dresses fancy does not necessarily mean that they are fancy or of good character.)
"Absence makes the heart grow fonder (this means that when you separate from
someone that you love by putting distance between you that you will inevitably love
them more and yearn to see them.

JOINT SET-A group of parallel joints in a geologic formation


DISJOINT SETS-Sets with no elements in common.
UNIVERSAL SET-A set that contains all the elements of concern in the study of a
particular problem.
Union (set theory)
Union of two sets-In set theory, the union (denoted by ) of a collection of sets is
the set of all distinct elements in the collection.[1] It is one of the fundamental
operations through which sets can be combined and related to each other.
SUBSET
A is a proper subset of B and conversely B is a proper superset of A
In mathematics, especially in set theory, a set A is a subset of a set B, or
equivalently B is a superset of A, if A is "contained" inside B, that is, all elements of
A are also elements of B. A and B may coincide. The relationship of one set being a
subset of another is called inclusion or sometimes containment.

The subset relation defines a partial order on sets.


The algebra of subsets forms a Boolean algebra in which the subset relation is
called inclusion.
INTERSECTION-In mathematics, the intersection A B of two sets A and B is the set
that contains all elements of A that also belong to B (or equivalently, all elements of
B that also belong to A), but no other elements.[1]
COMPLIMENT SET-In set theory, a complement of a set A refers to things not in (that
is, things outside of) A. The relative complement of A with respect to a set B is the
set of elements in B but not in A. When all sets under consideration are considered
to be subsets of a given set U, the absolute complement of A is the set of all
elements in U but not in A
