0-groupoid

A 0-groupoid is a set. This terminology may seem strange at first, but it is very helpful to see sets as the beginning of a sequence of concepts: sets, groupoids, 2-groupoids, 3-groupoids, etc. Doing so reveals patterns such as the periodic table. (It also sheds light on the theory of homotopy groups and n-stuff.)

For example, there should be a 1-groupoid of 0-groupoids; this is the underlying groupoid of the category of sets. Then a groupoid enriched over this is a 1-groupoid (more precisely, a locally small groupoid). Furthermore, an enriched category is a category (or 1-category), so a 0-groupoid is the same as a 0-category.

One can continue to define a (−1)-groupoid to be a truth value and a (−2)-groupoid to be a triviality (that is, there is exactly one).
