Hi everyone,
I'm new here. Doing a CS degree and started a Theoretical Computer Science I module beginning second semester.
Need to hand in an assignment at the end of this month.
I've answered all the questions so far, except one I'm unsure about.
I'd appreciate your help and feedback on this one.
The question follows:
Which one of the following is a subset of P(C)?
1. {{1,2}}
2. {{a,b}}
3. {a,b}
4. {{a},{1,2}}
The question is based on the following sets, where U represents a universal set:
U={a,b, {a,b},{1},{2},{1,2}}; C={a,b,{a,b},{1,2}}
It doesn't make sense to me, since I've figured that 1,2 & 3 are all subsets of P(C). I'm not sure if the question is asking for more than one choice, even though it says which ''one'' of the following. If it asked which one of the following is ''not'' a subset of P(C), it would make more sense as it would have been option 4.
This is the first time I've been exposed to Discrete Mathematics, so excuse me if things aren't too obvious for me.
Thanks guys!
Correction: Changed - U={a,b {a,b},{1},{2},{1,2}} to U={a,b,{a,b},{1},{2},{1,2}}
