A link from 
  http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#set.union
to
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_%28set_theory%29
would help young people to understand sets.

Of course it is the same for intersection(), difference(), and symmetric_difference().

The images of the wikipedia article explain it very good.
