Disjoint sets

Disjoint sets are like a group of toys that don't overlap with each other. For example, if you have a set of animal toys, and another set of fruit toys, they don't have any toys that are the same or that belong in both sets.

Think of it like different groups of friends at school. If your friend group is made up of soccer players and another friend group is made up of dancers, there might not be any people who are in both groups. They are separate and don't overlap.

In computer science, disjoint sets mean that two sets of data don't share any common elements. This can be useful for organizing data and making sure things are kept separate.
