DISCRETE MATHEMATICAL STRUCTURES
... Multisets: Two ordinary sets are identical if they have the same elements, so for instance, {a, a, b} and {a, b} are the same set because they have exactly the same elements, namely a and b. However, in some applications it might be useful to allow repeated elements in a set. In that case we use mul ...
