An n-tuple (x1,...,xn) is an ordered list of n sets. It can be constructed in several ways. A popular definition is the original set x1 for n=1 and the ordered pair ((x1,...,xn-1),xn) otherwise.
Klick on the ordered pair ( 264, 44 ) or the natural number 70 to see how it may be defined as a set.
(264, 44, 70) = ( ( 264, 44 ), 70 )
