    For those who are unsure what multiplicity means in this context:

    A multiplicity is the number of times an element appears in a set (more specifically, a multiset, i.e. a set that can have repeated elements).

    e.g. In the set {1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5}, the number 2 appears twice, hence, it has a multiplicity of 2, whereas the numbers 1, 3, 4 and 5 have multiplicites of 1.
