Cardinality refers to the size of a set, and countability distinguishes between finite sets, countably infinite sets, and uncountably infinite sets. Understanding these concepts allows mathematicians to compare the sizes of different sets, such as showing that the set of real numbers is uncountably infinite, while the set of integers is countably infinite. This has profound implications in areas like analysis and topology.
