Set Theoretic Operations
Concept: Intersection
The intersection of two sets A and B forms a new set, denoted
A 
B,
which contains all the elements which are members of both A and B.
Graphic Representation
The area shaded in orange represents
A B.
Example
If A = {1,2,3,4} and B = {3,4,5,6}, then A
B = {3,4}
Note: The intersection operation can be performed on more than just
two sets. The area shaded in orange represents A
B C.
