SET THEORY IN LINEAR ALGEBRA

Journal Name:

Publication Year:

Author NameUniversity of Author
Abstract (2. Language): 
Set theory language is an essential prerequisite for the cognition of linear algebra concepts. Many difficulties of cognition in linear algebra may be explained by the lack of mastery of set theory concepts. In the paper, an in depth discussion of documented categories of difficulties originated from set theory is provided.
