    Three sets involved[edit] In the left hand sides of the following identities, L{\displaystyle L}is the L eft most set, M{\displaystyle M}is the M iddle set, and R{\displaystyle R}is the R ight most set. Precedence rules. There is no universal agreement on the order of precedenceof the basic set operators.

  3. Transfer of learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_of_learning

    Although the theory is that the similarity of elements facilitates transfer, there is a challenge in identifying which specific elements had an effect on the learner at the time of learning. Factors that can affect transfer include: Context and degree of original learning: how well the learner acquired the knowledge.

  4. Identity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_function

    The identity function f on X is often denoted by id X. In set theory, where a function is defined as a particular kind of binary relation, the identity function is given by the identity relation, or diagonal of X. Algebraic properties. If f : X → Y is any function, then f ∘ id X = f = id Y ∘ f, where "∘" denotes function composition.

  5. Set (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_(mathematics)

    Set (mathematics) A set of polygons in an Euler diagram. This set equals the one depicted above since both have the very same elements. In mathematics, a set is a collection of different [1] things; [2] [3] [4] these things are called elements or members of the set and are typically mathematical objects of any kind: numbers, symbols, points in ...

  6. Binary relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_relation

    A function (also called mapping): a binary relation that is functional and total. In other words, every element of the domain has exactly one image element. For example, the red and green binary relations in the diagram are functions, but the blue and black ones are not. An injection: a function that is injective. For example, the green binary ...

  7. Monoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoid

    The set of all functions from a given set to M is also a monoid. The identity element is a constant function mapping any value to the identity of M; the associative operation is defined pointwise. Fix a monoid M with the operation • and identity element e, and consider its power set P(M) consisting of all subsets of M.

  8. Transfer of training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_of_training

    For example, after completing a safety course, transfer of training occurs when the employee uses learned safety behaviors in their work environment. [1] Theoretically, transfer of training is a specific application of the theory of transfer of learning that describes the positive, zero, or negative performance outcomes of a training program ...

  9. Combinatorial proof - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_proof

    A proof by double counting. A combinatorial identity is proven by counting the number of elements of some carefully chosen set in two different ways to obtain the different expressions in the identity. Since those expressions count the same objects, they must be equal to each other and thus the identity is established. A bijective proof.
