This is excellent.
It there any way to create this set to that only the integer members or
the rational members are included? I was not sure how to use a
conditional assignment here.

with all thy getting get understanding---Proverbs 4:7.
The gentle art of being gentle---of kindness and forgiveness,
sensitivity and thoughtfulness and generosity and humility and good
old-fashioned love---have gone out of fashion. Ironically, everyone is
demanding their rights, and this demand is so shrill that it destroys
one of the most basic rights, if we can put it like that: the right, or
at least the longing and hope, to have a peaceful, stable, secure, and
caring place to live, to be, to learn, and to flourish---N.T. Wright.
In the wildness of speculation it has been suggested (of course more in
jest than in earnest),that Europe ought to grow its corn in America, and
devote itself solely to manufactures and commerce, as the best sort of
division of the labour of the globe---Thomas Malthus, An Essay on the
Principle of Population Book III, Chapter XII.
