Venn diagram showing which uppercase letter glyphs are shared by the Greek, Latin and Russian alphabets.

A Venn diagram (also known as a set diagram or logic diagram) is a diagram that shows all possible logical relations between a finite collection of different sets.

Venn diagrams are a special case of Euler diagrams, which do not necessarily show all relations.

Venn diagrams were conceived around 1880 by John Venn.

They are used to teach elementary set theory, as well as illustrate simple set relationships in probability, logic, statistics, linguistics and computer science.
