Cocountability

Summary

In mathematics, a cocountable subset of a set XX is a subset YY whose complement in XX is a countable set. In other words, YY contains all but countably many elements of XX. Since the rational numbers are a countable subset of the reals, for example, the irrational numbers are a cocountable subset of the reals. If the complement is finite, then one says YY is cofinite.
