Sets of integers
Sets of integers are collections of whole numbers that can be positive, negative, or zero. For example, the set of all integers includes numbers like -3, 0, 4, and 27. These sets are used to group numbers with common properties or to solve mathematical problems. You can think of a set as a list of items, where order doesn’t matter and each item appears only once. Sets help organize, compare, and analyze numbers efficiently, forming the foundation for more advanced math concepts.
