Class: Set
Overview
Set implements a collection of unordered values with no duplicates. This is a hybrid of Array’s intuitive inter-operation facilities and Hash’s fast lookup.
Several methods accept any Enumerable object (implementing each) for greater flexibility: new, replace, merge, subtract, |, &, -, ^.
The equality of each couple of elements is determined according to Object#eql? and Object#hash, since Set uses Hash as storage.
Finally, if you are using class Set, you can also use Enumerable#to_set for convenience.
Example
require 'set'
s1 = Set.new [1, 2] # -> #<Set: {1, 2}>
s2 = [1, 2].to_set # -> #<Set: {1, 2}>
s1 == s2 # -> true
s1.add("foo") # -> #<Set: {1, 2, "foo"}>
s1.merge([2, 6]) # -> #<Set: {6, 1, 2, "foo"}>
s1.subset? s2 # -> false
s2.subset? s1 # -> true
