Exercise · ZW-FINITE-SET-006 · ★☆☆ Basic
Which of these sets is finite?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- C. \(\{1,2,\dots,100\}\)
Explanation
\(\{1,2,\dots,100\}\) has 100 elements. The other three are infinite.
Review the concept: Finite set
A set \(A\) is finite if there is a bijection between \(A\) and \(\{1,\dots,n\}\) for some \(n\in\mathbb{N}\), where \(\{1,\dots,0\}=\varnothing\).
\[A\sim\{1,\dots,n\}, \quad |A|=n\]
