Version 8 of Power set of a list

Updated 2002-08-27 16:59:21

How many set are in a cartisian product? Example:

{(a),(b)} = (ab) Answer is 1 {(a),(b),(c)} = (ab),(ac),(bc) answer is 3 {......,(c),(d)} = (ab),(ac),(ad),(bc),(bd) answer is 5

Let a=1, b=2, c=3, d=4.......

So if we have {1,2,......,50} How many set can we get?

very sinple the answer is 1225 sets.
