Hi Fabian, Welcome on board ;-)
Set: I represent a set of objects without duplicates. so if you have the same number multiple times, it cannot be added more than once in the Set. replace Set by Bag (I represent an unordered collection of possibly duplicate elements.) and the size will always be 10.
