Goldman and Schusett however claimed the pair used a lot of material from their script, so the issue went through the
Directed set Directed set In mathematics, a directed set (or a directed preorder or a filtered set) is a nonempty set "A" together with a reflexive and transitive binary relation ≤ (that is, a preorder), with the additional property that every pair of elements has an upper bound. In other words, for any "a" and "b" in "A" there must exist "c" in "A" with "a" ≤ "c" and "b" ≤ "c". The notion defined above is sometimes called an upward directed set. A downward directed set is defined analogously, meaning when every pair of elements is bounded below. Some authors (and
