The category whose objects are finite sets and whose morphisms are all functions between them. Finite categorical limits and colimits are the ordinary set constructions. It is essentially small: a skeleton of a category consists of the sets for . Its Yoneda embedding preserves limits but generally does not preserve coproducts: evaluating at a two-element set gives two elements, while evaluating gives four.
