(Positive) Measure
\mu:\mathcal{R}\rightarrow\bar{\mathbb{R} }_{\ge0}
For a \sigma-ring, \mathcal{R}
Properties
\forall\overbrace{(A_n)_{n=1}^\infty }^{\begin{array}{c}\text{pairwise}\\\text{disjoint}\end{array} }\subseteq\mathcal{R}[\mu\left(\bigudot_{n=1}^\infty A_n\right)=\sum^\infty_{n=1}\mu(A_n)]



TODO: I can use subadditivity if I assume the measure is positive to define it and get rid of that pesky pairwise disjoint
