Abstract
We continue in what is called the “naive viewpoint” wherein a set is “primitive” and well-understood. Thus, for a given “set” 52, with “points” o), there are such things as:
subsetsA ⊂ B,read “A is a subset of B
”, if for each ω in A, ω is also in B or ω ∈ A implies ω ∈ B where ∈ is read “belongs to”;
sequencesof subsets where for each i = 1(1)∞, Aiis a
subset of Ω we write {Ai: i=1(1)∞} with: read
“such that”;
arbitraryfamiliesof subsets where for each i in an(other)
index set I, Aiis a subset of Ω.
