The powerset of a set \(X\), denoted \(\mathcal{P}(X)\), is the collection of all subsets of \(X\). It is easy to see that, for \(X\) finite, the powerset of \(X\) has cardinality \(2^{|X|}\), and the same fact holds when \(X\) is infinite, although this is because cardinal arithmetic was defined to have that behaviour.
