Ppt-Venn Diagram and Set Operations - Part 2

The document discusses set operations including difference of sets, complement of sets, and provides examples to demonstrate these operations. It defines difference of sets A - B as the elements that belong to set A but not set B. It also defines the complement of a set A' as the elements in the universal set that do not belong to set A.
