I have a project for my algebra seminar and I have no idea how can I make it. I would be very happy if someone would give me some tips.
Input: non-zero natural number n
• Output:
- the number of transitive relations on a set A = {a_1, . . . , an}
- the transitive relations on a set A = {a_1, . . . , an} (for n ≤ 4)
Example for n=2:
- the number of transitive relations on a set A = {a_1, a_2} is 13
- the transitive relations on a set A = {a_1, a_2} are:
R_1 = ∅, R_2 = {(a_1, a_1)}, R_3 = {(a_1, a_2)}, R_4 = {(a_2, a_1)},
R_5 = {(a_2, a_2)}, R_6 = {(a_1, a_1),(a_1, a_2)}, R_7 = {(a_1, a_1),(a_2, a_1)},
R_8 = {(a_1, a_1),(a_2, a_2)}, R_9 = {(a_1, a_2),(a_2, a_2)}, R_10 = {(a_2, a_1),(a_2, a_2)},
R_11 = {(a_1, a_1),(a_2, a_2),(a_1, a_2)}, R_12 = {(a_1, a_1),(a_2, a_2),(a_2, a_1)},
R_13 = {(a_1, a_1),(a_1, a_2),(a_2, a_1),(a_2, a_2)}.
I know C++ and Python.
