A Venn diagram is a visual tool used to show the relationships between different sets of items or concepts. It consists of overlapping circles, where each circle represents a set, and the area where the circles overlap shows the shared elements between the sets. Venn diagrams help highlight similarities, differences, and connections between ideas or groups, making complex information easier to understand. They are commonly used in logic, mathematics, and problem-solving to visually compare and contrast different sets or categories.
