Abstract
A classical (crisp) set is normally defined as a collection of elements or objects x ∈ X that can be finite, countable, or overcountable. Each single element can either belong to or not belong to a set A, A ⊆ X. In the former case, the statement “x belongs to A” is true, whereas in the latter case this statement is false.
