Set-builder notation (nonfiction)

In [[set theory and its applications to logic, mathematics, and computer science, set-builder notation is a mathematical notation for describing a set by enumerating its elements or stating the properties that its members must satisfy.

Defining sets by properties is also known as set comprehension, set abstraction, or as defining a set's intension.

Set-builder notation is sometimes simply referred to as set notation, although this phrase may be better reserved for the broader class of means of denoting sets.
