For those who are very bored with all the regular Maths lessons we learn in school, here are something you may find interesting
Russell's paradox:
The set M is the set of all sets that do not contain themselves as members. Does M contain itself?
If it does, it is not a member of M according to the definition.
If it does not, then it has to be a member of M, again according to the definition of M.
Therefore, the statements "M is a member of M " and "M is not a member of M " both lead to contradictions.
So what's the answer to this question?
