A professor has 24 text books on computer science and is concerned about their coverage of the topics (P) compilers, (Q) data structures and (R) Operating systems. The following data gives the number of books that contain material on these topics: $n(P) = 8, n(Q) = 13, n(R) = 13, n(P \cap R) = 3, n(P \cap R) = 3, n(Q \cap R) = 3, n(Q \cap R) = 6, n(P \cap Q \cap R) = 2 $ where $n(x)$ is the cardinality of the set $x$. Then the number of text books that have no material on compilers is

Solution

Given: Total books = 24, and books with compilers \(n(P)=8\).

Asked: Number of books with no material on compilers = \(|P'|\).

\[ |P'| = \text{Total} - |P| = 24 - 8 = \boxed{16}. \]

Note: The other intersection counts aren’t needed since “no compilers” depends only on \(n(P)\).
