About this MCQ
This Medium Discrete Mathematics MCQ checks one syllabus fact.
The question is: “Select the correct name for: the set of all possible subsets of a given set, including the empty set and the set itself.”
The accepted answer is A. Power set. Select the correct name for the set of all possible subsets of a given set including the empty set and the set itself is answered by Power set option A Option B Cartesian product does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of Power set Option C Degree of a vertex does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of Power set Remaining alternatives Logical connective fall outside the same rule and should be eliminated once Power set is identified Discrete Mathematics questions of this type reward precise definitions rather than approximate associations Discrete Mathematics recall of this distinction is a regular item in FPSC PPSC NTS and.
