| Zusammenfassung: | The invention provides a method of generating a graphical representation of two or more finite sets of elements, the method comprising the steps of calculating the number of elements in each set, the number of elements in the union of all sets, and the number of elements in each set intersection; displaying a plurality of closed curves, the closed curves representing respective sets, the are bounded by each closed curve being proportional to the ratio of the number of elements in the corresponding set to the number of elements in the union of all sets; and aligning each closed curve relative to each other closed curve, the area bounded by the overlap of each curve being proportional to the ratio of the number of elements in the corresponding set intersection to the number of elements in the union of all sets. |
