Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion
The Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion (abbreviated PIE) provides an organized method/formula to find the number of elements in the union of a given group of sets, the size of each set, and the size of all possible intersections among the sets.
Remarks
Sometimes it is also useful to know that, if you take into account only the first 
sums on the right, then you will get an overestimate if 
is odd and an underestimate if is even.
So,
and so on.
