Hello, welcome to Techit's knowledge dump page. Here I will dump as many knowledge as possible for collection in the future use.

Mathematics

Mathematics is the study field I hated the most, even though I chose to study in Sci-Math program. Anyways just let's get into the point.

Imagine a data array, it's a set. Set is a collection of different stuff. For example A = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} or Slave={Diskette,GameCreator}.

Elements / Members

A stuff in a data set is called "element" or "member", so to write a set notation we use (in). So let's see some examples below.

  1. A={x|x𝕀+,5<x12}
  2. B={x|x,5x23}

To translate set notation to normal human-being data set we look at then use our brain to analyze, after that A should be {x which x in I+ (positive integer), x greater than -5 but less or equals to 12}, which in conclusion to be A={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}.

Additional info: you might see these stupid blackboard letters e.g. ,,𝕀,, these can be denotes to...

Venn diagram

Venn diagram is a way to draw set, usually to visualize set operations (usually union, intersection and complement) however it's a pain in ass to draw so I will not talk much about this thing. But for now let's get to know "universe" (𝕌; can be written as U, U, 𝓤, U or whatever the hell you would like) or data range or whatever the heck it's called but in Thai it's called เอกภพสัมพัทธ์.

Subset

Subset is what I hated the most in this topic so let's get fast. So you have A={1,2,3} the A's subset would be {},{1},{2},{3},{1,2},{1,3},{2,3},{1,2,3}, if you don't see the pattern, this is the pattern {},,A where is combination of every member from 1 member {1} to 2 {1,2} to 3 {1,2,3} members to n members. The total subset amount will be n(A)*2. In this example n(A) is 3 so we will have a total subset of 6.

Here's what you might need to know more about subset;

  1. {} is called "empty set" or "null" in computer nerd language
  2. Ø can be used to represent empty set too
  3. ABAB is generally false too.
Power set

Power set is related to subset; it's just a set of all subset in that set. Let's bring A={1,2,3} guess what is P(A)? Yes. P(A)={Ø,{1},{2},{3},{1,2},{1,3},{2,3},{1,2,3}}
