Abstract
|
||
|
||
Sets are a fundamental mathematical structure, and are commonly
|
||
used to both specify and implement programs. Sets are often
|
||
implemented as dictionaries with "don't care" values, but this
|
||
leaves the meaning of intersection, union, difference, and other
|
||
basic operations are ambiguous. This PEP therefore proposes
|
||
syntax and semantics for a concrete, built-in set type.
