There are two ways of describing, or specifying the members of, a set. One way is by intensional definition, using a rule or semantic description:A is the set whose members are the first four positive integers.B is the set of colors of the French flag.

The second way is by extension - that is, listing each member of the set. An extensional definition is denoted by enclosing the list of members in curly brackets:C = {4, 2, 1, 3}D = {blue, white, red}.
