Is there a generally accepted standard for learning number theory and combinatorics (like sicp is for programming)?

{} is the empty set and therefore does not "contain".

The empty set is not nothing. It's the set that contains nothing. Like an empty bag if you will.

But the empty set is a subset of the empty set.

Every set has itself and the empty set as subsets.

You should look up the difference between set membership and subset relations.

If you live in a first class country (not America) you can feel free to stroll right into any university library of your choice and pick your selection of PhD dissertations and class literature in the subject that interests you.
