huinga iti

1. (noun) subset (maths).

Mēnā kei roto ngā huānga katoa o tētahi huinga i tētahi huinga nui ake, ka kīia he huinga iti tētahi, he huinga nui tētahi. Ko te ⊂ hei tohu i te huinga iti, ko te ⊃ hei tohu i te huinga nui. Hei tauira: A = {1, 2, 3} E = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} Hei huinga iti te A ki te E (A ⊂ E). Hei huinga nui te E ki te A (E ⊃ A) (TRP 2010:128). / If all the elements are in a larger set, it is called a subset and the other is a superset. The symbol ⊂ is for a subset, the symbol ⊃ s for a superset. For example: A = {1, 2, 3} E = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} where A to E (A ⊂ E) is a subset. E to A (E ⊃ A) is a superset.
