Suppose there is a set A of 10 different numbers. The set B contains the same numbers, but in a different order. Is set A equal to set B?
I apologize if the question is incorrect from the point of view of mathematics. Correct, please, if that.

- But does the order of the elements in the set matter? Can they be assigned a sequence number? Will it remain set, or will it be something else? - Andrei
- Not. A set is simply an unordered (in the sense that the order has no meaning) a set of elements. An ordered set is already a tuple . - Harry
- The tuple ... Does mathematics have any designation? - Andrei
- ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/… - Harry
- Exactly, thanks. - Andrei
