| | Set Partitions |
 | | A set with 4 members can be partitioned in 15 ways, 5 members in 52 ways, etc. The number of ways that a set can be partitioned is it's Bell number. |
 | | As a matter of curiosity, the Bell number for a set with N members, B(N), is the sum of the number of ways that it can be partitioned into 1, 2, 3,... |
 | | The restricted growth array, RG, is a set of zero based indices specifying to which partition each element of the set belongs. |
