(Not about MV but sets/lists)

I am in school of thought that says that if you see a list, it might be set that is meant. People often don't need to distinguish between them for day to day purposes, so I'll just have to dig deeper, ask more questions to find out.

For instance, when I see a list of instructions, it might be defining the processor. In this case the presented list stands for the processors instuction /set/. OTOH it might also be a program.
In that case it is what is seems to be: an instruction /list/. Received on Sun May 21 2006 - 06:02:31 CDT
