Symbol: Cardinality S\left|S\right| Set cardinality
Cardinality(S), rendered as S\left|S\right|, represents the cardinality of the set SS. The cardinality of a finite set is a nonnegative integer. Cardinalities of infinite sets may be represented in terms of this symbol; for example, Z\left|\mathbb{Z}\right| is the cardinality of any countable set and R\left|\mathbb{R}\right| is the cardinality of the continuum.
