So for the second step the intervals (5/32, 7/32) and (25/32, 27/32) are removed, leaving ∪ ∪ ∪ . {\displaystyle \left\cup \left\cup \left\cup \left.} Continuing indefinitely with this removal, the Smith–Volterra–Cantor set is then the set of points that are never removed.
例如第二步里，区间(5/32, 7/32)与(25/32, 27/32)被移除，余下  ∪  ∪  ∪  . {\displaystyle \left\cup \left\cup \left\cup \left.} 继续不断地移除，那么史密斯-沃尔泰拉-康托尔集就是那些永远不会被移除的点组成的集合。
