Each chapter in this book deals with a single mathematical topic,
which ideally should form the basis of a single lecture. The
chapter has been designed as a mixture of the following
ingredients: -(i) Illustrative examples and notes for the student's
pre-lecture reading. (ii) Class discussion exercises for study in a
lecture or seminar. (iii) Graded problems for assignment work.

Functions A set is a collection of distinct objects. The objects be
longing to a set are the elements (or members) of the set. Although
the definition of a set given here refers to objects, we shall in
fact take objects to be numbers throughout this book, i.e. we are
concerned with sets of numbers. Illustrative Example 1: Set
Notation We give straight away some examples of sets in set
notation and explain the meaning in each case.
