Pigeonhole principle and inclusion, exclusion
Two counting ideas that prove things without listing anything.
Pigeonhole: more pigeons than holes means some hole holds two. Inclusion, exclusion: |A ∪ B| = |A| + |B| − |A ∩ B|, and the alternating sum continues for more sets. Picture it: a Venn diagram; the overlap is what you counted twice. Think it: inclusion, exclusion is the Möbius function of the subset lattice.

Žingsnis po žingsnio
- A = \left\{1, 2, 3, 4\right\},\quad B = \left\{3, 4, 5, 6\right\}
The two sets.
- A \cup B = \left\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\right\}
Keep everything in either set.
- |A| = 4,\ |B| = 4,\ |A \cup B| = 6
Cardinalities. Note |A ∪ B| = |A| + |B| − |A ∩ B|.

- The two sets.
- Keep everything in either set.
- Cardinalities. Note |A ∪ B| = |A| + |B| − |A ∩ B|.
Klausimai, kuriuos klausia žmonės
Permutation or combination?
Ask whether order matters. A lock code is a permutation (order matters); a hand of cards is a combination (it does not).
What is a graph in this sense?
Dots (vertices) joined by lines (edges), not a plot. Road maps, social networks and molecules are graphs; questions like "is there a route" and "how few colours" are graph theory.
