Discrete Mathematics Assignment: Cartesian Product

Cartesian Product Definition

  • The Cartesian product is the set of all ordered pairs formed by combining elements from two sets.

    • Example:

      • Let set A = {6, 9}

      • Let set B = {2, 3}

      • Then the Cartesian product A * B = {(6, 2), (6, 3), (9, 2), (9, 3)}

Set of Sets

  • A set of sets is defined as a set that contains other sets as its elements.

    • Example:

      • A = {(2, 3), (4, 5)}

      • Here, A is a set containing ordered pairs as its elements.
