Question
What is the difference between a collection and a set? Give reasons to support your answer?
Solution
Well-defined collections are sets.
Example:
The collection of good teachers in a school is not a set, It is a collection.
Thus, we can say that every set is a collection, but every collection is not necessarily a set.
The collection of vowels in English alphabets is a set.
