In formal logic, a bounded quantifier is a type of quantifier that applies to a specific subset or range of a given domain rather than the entire domain. It constrains the scope of the quantification to a specified limitation, which is typically represented by a variable or set of variables. To understand bounded quantifiers, it's helpful to compare them to unbounded quantifiers.
