A comedian's 'set'

[edit]

Comedians (and musicians, too, perhaps somewhat differently) use 'set' to mean their time on stage, don't they? Perhaps only comedians know exactly what's meant by this, but it's definitely another use. Perhaps they both fall under 'performing arts'? Any performing artist wikipedians out there wanna help clarify this?--Tyranny Sue (talk) 06:39, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deck of cards?

[edit]

A deck of cards, or a particular publication of a deck? (Also a number of tea cards, cigarette cards, etc.) 92.20.150.27 (talk) 10:43, 11 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Note

[edit]

I changed the definition of set (mathematics) to be consistent with the page it pointed to mentioning uniqueness as a criterion for set members. Ckelloug (talk) 20:36, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Note 2014

[edit]

I believe the section

 Mathematics and programming

should be changed to

 Mathematics and Computer programming. 

Does any editor or reviewer disagree? SoSivr (talk) 21 December 2014 — Preceding undated comment added 13:05, 21 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A good article, but lacking on history of the concept, modern interpretations. Naive set theory seems to overlap quite a bit. CMummert - 5 Oct 2006
