Math Problem Statement
For any set A, finite or infinite, let BA be the set of all functions mapping A into the set B = {0, 1}. Show that the cardinality of BA is the same as the cardinality of the set IP (A). [Hint: Each element of BA determines a subset of A in a natural way.] can you define the function for me
