SET 1. Secure Electronic Transaction. 2. Single Electron Tunneling. 3. Standard d'Echange et de Transfert. (1999-03-26) set A collection of objects, known as the elements of the set, specified in such a way that we can tell in principle whether or not a given object belongs to it. E.g. the set of all prime numbers, the set of zeros of the cosine function. For each set there is a predicate (or property) which is true for (posessed by) exectly those objects which are elements of the set. The predicate may be defined by the set or vice versa. Order and repetition of elements within the set are irrelevant so, for example, 1, 2, 3 = 3, 2, 1 = 1, 3, 1, 2, 2. Some common set of numbers are given the following names: N = the natural numbers 0, 1, 2, ... Z = the integers ..., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, ... Q = the rational numbers p/q where p, q are in Z and q /= 0. R = the real numbers C = the complex numbers. The empty set is the set with no elements. The intersection of two sets X and Y is the set containing all the elements x such that x is in X and x is in Y. The union of two sets is the set containing all the elements x such that x is in X or x is in Y. See also set complement. (1995-01-24). Source: The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing.

Tips from 1870

Usage: Sit, Set. Few words afford a more fertile field for grammatical blundering than the verbs sit and set. The important fact to remember in the use of the words is that sit, in modern usage, is an intransitive verb, and does not take an object, while set, which means to place in position, is transitive, and requires an object to complete its meaning. You cannot sit a thing, but you do set or place a thing.
The verb sit undergoes a slight change with the change of tense or time. "I sit at the window today." "I sat at the window yesterday." "I have sat at the window daily for many years." "Sitting at the window, I saw the storm arise." "Having sat at his table, I can testify to his hospitality."
The transitive verb set undergoes no tense changes. "See me set this vase on the table." "He set his seal to the paper yesterday." "Jones will not set the world on fire with his writings." "Having set my affairs in order, I returned home." "I sit down." "I sat down." "I set him down."
There are many intransitive uses of the verb set; as, "The sun sets," "The tide sets toward the south," "The fruit has set," "He set out for Boston."
There is a difference of opinion as to whether we should say "The coat sets well" or "The coat sits well," with the greater weight in favor of sits. "The hen sits on her eggs." "She is a sitting hen." When the verb is used reflexively use set and not sat; as, "I set me down beside her," not "I sat me down beside her." Source: Slips of Speech.

Specialty Definition: Set

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

This article is about sets in mathematics. See also

In mathematics, a set is a collection of objects such that two sets are equal if, and only if, they contain the same objects. A finite set is a set that can be put into bijective correspondence with a set {1, 2, ..., n}; the alternative is an infinite set. For a discussion of the properties and axioms concerning the construction of sets, see naive set theory and axiomatic set theory. Here we give only a brief overview of the concept.

Sets are one of the basic concepts of mathematics. A set is, more or less, just a collection of objects, called its elements. Standard notation uses braces around the list of elements, as in:

{red, green, blue}
{red, red, blue, red, green, red, red, green, red, red, blue}
{x : x is an additive primary color}

All three lines above denote the same set. As you see, it is possible to describe one and the same set in different ways: either by listing all its elements (best for small finite sets) or by giving a defining property of all its elements; and it does not matter in what order, or how many times, the elements are listed, if a list is given.

Set Terminology

If and are sets and every in is also contained in , then is said to be a subset of , denoted . If at least one element in is not also in , is called a proper subset of , denoted . Every set has as subsets itself, called the improper subset, and the empty set {} or . The fact that an element belongs to the set is denoted .

The union of a collection of sets is the set of all elements contained in at least one of the sets

The intersection of a collection of sets is the set of all elements contained in all of the sets.

These unions and intersections are denoted

and

respectively.

The "number of elements" in a certain set is called the cardinal number of the set and denoted for a set (for a finite set this is an ordinary number, for an infinite set it differentiates between different "degrees of infiniteness", named (aleph zero), ).

The set of all subsets of is called its power set and is denoted or . This power set is a Boolean algebra under the operations of union and intersection.

The set of functions from a set A to a set B is sometimes denoted by BA. It is a generalisation of the power set in which 2 could be regarded as the set {0,1} (see natural number).

The cartesian product of two sets A and B is the set

The sum of two sets A and B is the set
A+B = A×{0} ∪ B×{1}.

Examples of Sets of Numbers

  1. Natural numbers which are used for counting the members of sets.
  2. Integers which appear as solutions to equations like x + a = b.
  3. Rational numbers which appear as solutions to equations like a + bx = c.
  4. Algebraic numbers which can appear as solutions to polynomial equations (with integer coefficients) and may involve radicals and certain other irrational numbers.
  5. Real numbers which include transcendental numbers (which can't appear as solutions to polynomial equations with rational coefficents) as well as the algebraic numbers.
  6. Complex numbers which provide solutions to equations such as x2 + 1 = 0.

Special Remarks About Terminology

Care must be taken with verbal descriptions of sets. One can describe in words a set whose existence is paradoxical. If one assumes such a set exists, an apparent paradox or antinomy may occur. Axiomatic set theory was created to avoid these problems.

For example, suppose we call a set "well-behaved" if it doesn't contain itself as an element. Now consider the set S of all well-behaved sets. Is S itself well-behaved? There is no consistent answer; this is Russell's paradox. In axiomatic set theory, the set S is either not allowed (in the case of the Zermelo-Frankel axioms) or is considered to be a proper class (in the case of the von Neumann-Bernays-Godel axioms), and we have no paradox.

Set (computer science)

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In computer science, the set is a collection of certain values without any particular order. It corresponds with the mathematical concept of set, but with the restriction that it has to be finite. Aside from the order, it is the same as the list.

The set was first introduced by Pascal and nowadays many programming languages support it in the form of language specification or in a standard library.

Java programming language offers Set interface to support sets. In C++, STL provides set classeses.

Sets can be implemented using various data structures. Practical ways include arrays, hash tables and any sort of tree structure.

ASCII code can be considered a set of 128 (or 256) characters.

Set (mythology)

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Set (also Setekh, Seth, etc) was originally a god of strength, war, storms, foreign lands and deserts in Egyptian mythology. He protected desert caravans but also caused sandstorms. He was one of the Ennead and a son of Nuit and either Seb or Re. He was usually the husband of Astarte or Anat (in Semitic mythology) or the Egyptian goddess Nephthys (with whom he was the father of Anubis). He was closely associated with the god Ash.

One of the more common epithets was that he was 'great of strength'. In one of the Pyramid Texts it states that the kings strength is that of Set. The Pharaoh himself was the heir to the two 'brothers' and united the offices of Horus and Set or of Upper and Lower Egypt.

Set protected the sun (Re) as he journeyed through the land of the dead during the night. Most notably, he fought and killed Apep, the evil serpent of darkness who attacked Re each night.

Later, when his brother Osiris became a much more important god, Set gradually became thought of as his opposite. A new myth cycle developed in which Set kills Osiris in their struggles (see Legend of Osiris and Isis), so he became the god of evil.

He was also seen to be in contrast to Horus, who was a god of the sky, so his breath was responsible for the worms. Metal ore was called the "bones of Set" because they came from the ground. In the 3rd millennium BC, Seth (replacing Horus) became the patron god of the pharaohs, but as the story of Set's murder of his brother became popular, Horus was switched back.

Set is sometimes incorrectly thought of as being a jackal-headed god. He is depicted as having square ears, a forked tail and a curved snout. Some people believe the animal represented was an aardvark, a type of pig, or another as-yet-unidentiifed beast. In addition to the already mentioned animals, Set was associated with gazelles, donkeys, crocodiles and hippopotami.

The Greeks later linked Set with Typhon because both were evil forces that attacked the main gods, though they are not otherwise very similar.

See also: Legend of Osiris and Isis; Temple of Set.

Alternative: Seth, Setekh, Setesh, Seti, Sutekh, Setech, Sutech

In the fictional writings of White Wolf, the Followers of Set are a clan of vampires.

Set and drift

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Set and drift are terms in navigation which refer to external forces acting upon a ship that make it deviate from its intended course. Set refers to the direction in which the ship deviates; drift is the speed, in knots, at which it deviates. Set and drift can be caused by anything, but normally they are caused by current, wind, and helmsman error.

Set game

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Set is a card game designed by Marsha Falco and published by Set Enterprises in 1991. The deck consists of 81 cards varying in four features: number (1, 2, or 3); symbol (diamond, squiggle, or oval); shading (solid, striped, or open); and color (red, green, or purple).

Several games can be played with these cards, all involving the concept of a set. A set consists of three cards which satisfy all of these conditions:

Given any two cards from the deck, there will be one and only one other card that forms a set with them. One example of a set would be these three cards: In one game, the dealer lays out cards on the table until either 12 are laid down or someone sees a set and calls "Set!" The player who calls "Set" takes the cards in the set and the dealer continues to deal out cards. This process continues until the deck is exhausted and there are no more sets on the table. At this point, whoever collected the most sets, wins.

Subset

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)


BA in Venn diagram

If X and Y are sets and every element of X is also an element of Y, then we say or write:

Every set Y is a subset of itself. A subset of Y which is not equal to Y is called proper. If X is a proper subset of Y, then we write XY. Analogous comments apply to supersets.

Notational variations

There are two major systems in use for the notation of subsets. The older system uses the symbol "⊂" to indicate any subset and uses "⊊" to indicate proper subsets. The newer system uses the symbol "⊆" to indicate any subsets and uses "⊂" to indicate proper subsets. Wikipedia uses the newer system, which can be handled by a wider variety of web browsers. Analogous comments apply to supersets.

Examples

Simple results

PROPOSITION 1: Given any three sets A, B and C, if A is a subset of B and B is a subset of C, then A is a subset of C.

PROPOSITION 2: Two sets A and B are equal if and only if A is a subset of B and B is a subset of A.

PROPOSITION 3: The empty set is a subset of every set.

Proof: Given any set A, we wish to prove that {} is a subset of A. This involves showing that all elements of {} are elements of A. But there are no elements of {}.

For the experienced mathematician, the inference "{} has no elements, so all elements of {} are elements of A" is immediate, but it may be more troublesome for the beginner. Since {} has no members at all, how can "they" be members of anything else? It may help to think of it the other way around. In order to prove that {} was not a subset of A, we would have to find an element of {} which was not also an element of A. Since there are no elements of {}, this is impossible and hence {} is indeed a subset of A.

These propositions show that ⊆ is a partial order on the class of all sets, and {} is a bottom element.

Lexicography

Devil's Dictionary

LORD, n. In American society, an English tourist above the state of a costermonger, as, lord 'Aberdasher, Lord Hartisan and so forth. The traveling Briton of lesser degree is addressed as "Sir," as, Sir 'Arry Donkiboi, or 'Amstead 'Eath. The word "Lord" is sometimes used, also, as a title of the Supreme Being; but this is thought to be rather flattery than true reverence. Miss Sallie Ann Splurge, of her own accord, Wedded a wandering English lord -- Wedded and took him to dwell with her "paw," A parent who throve by the practice of Draw. Lord Cadde I don't hesitate to declare Unworthy the father-in-legal care Of that elderly sport, notwithstanding the truth That Cadde had renounced all the follies of youth; For, sad to relate, he'd arrived at the stage Of existence that's marked by the vices of age. Among them, cupidity caused him to urge Repeated demands on the pocket of Splurge, Till, wrecked in his fortune, that gentleman saw Inadequate aid in the practice of Draw, And took, as a means of augmenting his pelf, To the business of being a lord himself. His neat-fitting garments he wilfully shed And sacked himself strangely in checks instead; Denuded his chin, but retained at each ear A whisker that looked like a blasted career. He painted his neck an incarnadine hue Each morning and varnished it all that he knew. The moony monocular set in his eye Appeared to be scanning the Sweet Bye-and-Bye. His head was enroofed with a billycock hat, And his low-necked shoes were aduncous and flat. In speech he eschewed his American ways, Denying his nose to the use of his A's And dulling their edge till the delicate sense Of a babe at their temper could take no offence. His H's -- 'twas most inexpressibly sweet, The patter they made as they fell at his feet! Re-outfitted thus, Mr. Splurge without fear Began as Lord Splurge his recouping career. Alas, the Divinity shaping his end Entertained other views and decided to send His lordship in horror, despair and dismay From the land of the nobleman's natural prey. For, smit with his Old World ways, Lady Cadde Fell -- suffering Caesar! -- in love with her dad! G.J.
