1. Please tell me the difference between subset and a proper-subset.

2. And that between the powerset and proper-power set

3. What does P(A) denote?

1) Suppose there is a set A and another set B.
The set "A" is called as a subset of set "B" if all the elements of A
are also the elements of B.

If A is a subset of B, but A is not equal to B (i.e. there exists at least one element of B not contained in A), then
A is also a proper subset of B.

2) The SET of all subsets of a set is the POWER SET.

Suppose, A={1,2,}
Then, P(A) = { null,{1},{2},{1,2}}

NOTE : Universal set is not the SET of all subsets.
It is the just the listing of elements in a single set,whereas
in power set each element is considered as a SET.

3) P(A) denotes power set.

4) The traditional method or what?
