Set Theory & Logic

Sets, relations, functions, cardinality, proof and the foundations of mathematics.

Zvidzidzo

Introductory Sets and operations Membership, subsets, union, intersection, complement, and Venn diagrams. {1,2,3,4} union {3,4,5,6} Core Relations, functions and equivalence Relations as sets of pairs; reflexive, symmetric, transitive; functions and bijections. truth table of p implies q Advanced Cardinality and infinity Countable and uncountable sets, Cantor's diagonal argument, the continuum. sum of 1/2^n for n = 0 to oo Core Logic and methods of proof Connectives, quantifiers, direct proof, contrapositive, contradiction, induction. truth table of (p implies q) iff (not p or q)

What mathematics is built on. Sets and the operations on them, relations and functions defined precisely, the sizes of infinity, and the logic that turns an argument into a proof.

Mazita anoshandiswa pano

Tinya chero chiratidzo kuti uone chirevo chakazara, vhidhiyo, uye kuti chii chinoreva chero chiratidzo.

Are some infinities bigger than others?

Yes. The integers and the rationals can be listed; the real numbers cannot (Cantor's diagonal argument), so there are strictly more reals than integers.

What is the difference between a relation and a function?

A relation pairs inputs with outputs freely; a function is a relation in which every input gets exactly one output.
