In a similar manner, there are several ways to create new sets from sets that have already been defined. In fact, we will form these new sets using the logical operators of conjunction (and), disjunction (or), and negation (not).

An example with students in math courses illustrates this principle. It also defines a derangement as a permutation where no element retains its original position, and concludes with practice checkpoints on related counting problems.

Much of what follows might be review, but it is very important that you are fluent in the language of set theory. Most of the notation we use below is standard, although some might be a little different than what you have seen before. For us, a set will simply be an unordered collection of objects.

Even at the earliest stage of mathematical reasoning, the idea of sets is being used. As such a fundamental concept, this subject can be studied on its own as a graduate-level course! Of course, we will not go into such detail as one would expect in such a graduate-level course. Here we will explore some basic definitions and relationships about sets so that we can ultimately apply them to some practical situations.

Any collection of items can form a set. A set simply specifies the contents; order is not important. The set represented by {1, 2, 3} is equivalent to the set {3, 1, 2}. Sometimes a collection might not contain all the elements of a set. For example, Chris owns three Madonna albums. While Chris’s collection is a set, we can also say it is a subset of the larger set of all Madonna albums.

It emphasizes well-defined sets, membership, and element order absence. Through checkpoints, it encourages analysis of set membership and subsets and introduces the empty set concept. Activities are included to explore subset relationships and object membership within sets.

It covers various types of relations—reflexive, symmetric, anti-symmetric, and transitive—illustrated with examples involving integers and real numbers. The text highlights specific properties and contexts, such as subset inclusion, divisibility, and the less than or equal to relation.
