Al*Gore*rithm

Subject: New Mathematical Process

A new mathematical process has been defined.

 

Al*Gore*rithm -n. Math. A hypothetical process whereby a finite set is counted repeatedly until the desired number of items is reached, whether or not that number is less than or greater than the finite number of items in the set.

 

O.K. class, today's Set-Subset project:

Draw a proof of the AlGorerithm by constructing a superset of voters containing a minority subset of dumb voters, and a majority subset of smart voters. Superimpose a hypothetical majority subset containing all of the minority subset, a  subset of the majority subset, a subset of the superset not contained in either the minority or majority subsets, and an additional set outside the known superset.

Nice try Mr. Gore, but this was a TRICK question, you CANNOT have a subset that exists outside the superset. Final grade: FAIL
