Definition

Some authors, working to a particular mathematical agenda, do not discuss the cardinality of an infinite set, and instead limit their definition of this concept to the finite case.

Some others gloss over the definition for the cardinality of a finite set, perhaps on the understanding that the definition is trivial, and instead raise the concept only in the infinite case.
