Multiplicative Principle (in terms of sets): If X and Y are
finite sets, then |X ×Y| = |X||Y|. D) You are going to give a
careful proof of the multiplicative principle, as broken up into
two steps:
(i) Find a bijection
φ : <m + n>→<m>×<n> for any pair of natural
numbers m and n. Note that you must describe explicitly a function
and show it is a bijection.
(ii) Give a careful proof of the multiplicative principle by
explaining how it reduces to the result of part (i).
