Overview
Cardinal numbers are natural numbers that are used to measure cardinality of sets. Cardinality is a fancy way of saying the size of a set. This means the cardinality is the number of elements in a set, provided that the set is finite. If the set is infinite, something called a transfinite cardinal number is used to describe the cardinality of the set. Cardinal numbers are a very important part of set theory, even though they are not studied often or used constantly.
