===== Union ===== ==== Set ==== | @#55CCEE: context | @#55CCEE: $X,Y$ ... set | | @#FFBB00: definiendum | @#FFBB00: $ x\in X \cup Y $ | | @#55EE55: postulate | @#55EE55: $ x\in X\lor x\in Y $ | ==== Discussion ==== The 2-ary set construction $ X \cup Y $ is commutative and idempotent. Notice that $ X \cup \emptyset = X$. The union and [[intersection]] are associative and distributive with respect to another. === Reference === Wikipedia: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complement_%28set_theory%29|Union]] ==== Parents ==== === Context === [[Sets]]
