Kinds of set

1. Finite set – countable
Example: Sets A, B, C, D are finite sets

2. Infinite set – uncountable
Example: Set E is an infinite set

3. Empty or null set – has no element
Example: A = { }

4. Equal set – set A and set B are equal set if the elements of set A is exactly the element of set B.
Example:
A = {set of an even counting number of one digit} = {2,4,6,8}
B = {set of an integral multiples of two having one digit = {2,4,6,8}

5. Equivalent set – two sets are equivalent if there exists a one-to-one correspondence between elements of the two sets.
Example:
A = {1, 2, 3, 4,5} - x coordinate
B = {6, 7, 8, 9, 10} – y coordinate

then “A” is equivalent to B. We can construct the relation of set A and set B.

{ (1,6}, (2,7), (3,8), (4,4), (5,10) }

6. Subset – set whose elements are members of the given set A = {1,2,3,4,5,8}, B = {2,4,8}

7. Universal Set – totality of the given set with consideration. The set from which we select elements to form A given set is called universal.
Example:
Set A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8} is a universal set
Set B = {2, 4, 8} is a subset of set A

8. Disjoint Set – sets that has no common element ; if two sets have no element in common, the sets are called disjoint sets.
