# This library provides the Set class, which deals with a collection
# of unordered values with no duplicates. It is a hybrid of Array's
# intuitive inter-operation facilities and Hash's fast lookup. If you
# need to keep values sorted in some order, use the SortedSet class.
# The method +to_set+ is added to Enumerable for convenience.
# See the Set and SortedSet documentation for examples of usage.
# Set implements a collection of unordered values with no duplicates.
# This is a hybrid of Array's intuitive inter-operation facilities and
# Set is easy to use with Enumerable objects (implementing +each+).
# Most of the initializer methods and binary operators accept generic
# Enumerable objects besides sets and arrays. An Enumerable object
# can be converted to Set using the +to_set+ method.
# Set uses Hash as storage, so you must note the following points:
# * Equality of elements is determined according to Object#eql? and
# Object#hash. Use Set#compare_by_identity to make a set compare
# its elements by their identity.
# * Set assumes that the identity of each element does not change
# while it is stored. Modifying an element of a set will render the
# set to an unreliable state.
# * When a string is to be stored, a frozen copy of the string is
# stored instead unless the original string is already frozen.
# The comparison operators <, >, <=, and >= are implemented as
# shorthand for the {proper_,}{subset?,superset?} methods. However,
# the <=> operator is intentionally left out because not every pair of
# sets is comparable ({x, y} vs. {x, z} for example).
# s1 = Set[1, 2] #=> #<Set: {1, 2}>
# s2 = [1, 2].to_set #=> #<Set: {1, 2}>
# s1.add("foo") #=> #<Set: {1, 2, "foo"}>
# s1.merge([2, 6]) #=> #<Set: {1, 2, "foo", 6}>
# s1.subset?(s2) #=> false
# s2.subset?(s1) #=> true
