When a set is said to be proper?

A set is not, in itself, proper. However, it is a proper subset of another set if

  • every element in the first set is an element of the second set, and
  • there is at least one element in the second set which is not in the first.

In other words, all of the first set is included in the second but is not equal to the second.
