Definition
A [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-ring [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] and a countably additive, extended real valued. non-negative set function [math]\mu:\mathcal{A}\rightarrow[0,\infty][/math] is a measure.
Contrast with pre-measure
Note: the family [math]A_n[/math] must be pairwise disjoint

Terminology
Complete measure
A measure is complete if for [ilmath]A\in\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] we have [math][\mu(A)=0\wedge B\subset A]\implies B\in \mathcal{A}[/math]
Finite
A set [ilmath]A\in\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is finite if [ilmath]\mu(A)<\infty[/ilmath] - we say "[ilmath]A[/ilmath] has finite measure"
Finite measure
[ilmath]\mu[/ilmath] is a finite measure if every set [ilmath]\in\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is finite.
Sigma-finite
A set [ilmath]A\in\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-finite if [math]\exists(A_n)_{n=1}^\infty:[A\subseteq\cup^\infty_{n=1}A_n\wedge(\forall A_n,\ \mu(A_n)<\infty)][/math]
Sigma-finite measure
[ilmath]\mu[/ilmath] is [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-finite if every set [ilmath]\in\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-finite
Total
If [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is a [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-algebra rather than a ring (that is [ilmath]X\in\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] where [ilmath]X[/ilmath] is the space) then we use
Totally finite measure
If [ilmath]X[/ilmath] is finite
Totally sigma-finite measure
If [ilmath]X[/ilmath] is [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-finite
Examples
Trivial measures
Given the Measurable space [ilmath](X,\mathcal{A})[/ilmath] we can define:
[math]\mu:\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\{0,+\infty\}[/math] by [math]\mu(A)=\left\{\begin{array}{lr} 0 & \text{if }A=\emptyset \\ +\infty & \text{otherwise} \end{array}\right.[/math]
Another trivial measure is:
[math]v:\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\{0\}[/math] by [math]v(A)=0[/math] for all [math]A\in\mathcal{A}[/math]
