Venn Zen

Young Brian is so excited to be back at school. His favourite subject is (of course) biology, but he is particularly enjoying his recent math classes where he has been really getting into Venn diagrams.

 

A Venn diagram is a method of grouping different sets of items, popularised by John Venn back in the 1880's (although the concept likely originated much earlier). Venn diagrams use simple closed curves, frequently circles, to represent sets. The region where the two circles overlap is called the intersection set and this is where Brian is gaining insight into the nature of Venn diagrams.
