category of sets
|
(Definition)
|
|
|
The category of sets has as its objects all sets and as its morphisms functions between sets. (This works if a category's objects are only required to be part of a class, as the class of all sets exists.)
Alternately one can specify a universe, containing all sets of interest in the situation, and take the category to contain only sets in that universe and functions between those sets.
