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.
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 #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).
require 'set'
s1 = Set[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: {1, 2, "foo", 6}>
s1.subset?(s2) #=> false
s2.subset?(s1) #=> true

Creates a new set containing the given objects.
Set[1, 2] # => #<Set: {1, 2}>
Set[1, 2, 1] # => #<Set: {1, 2}>
Set[1, 'c', :s] # => #<Set: {1, "c", :s}>
# File lib/set.rb, line 78 def self.[](*ary) new(ary) end
Creates a new set containing the elements of the given enumerable object.
If a block is given, the elements of enum are preprocessed by the given block.
Set.new([1, 2]) #=> #<Set: {1, 2}>
Set.new([1, 2, 1]) #=> #<Set: {1, 2}>
Set.new([1, 'c', :s]) #=> #<Set: {1, "c", :s}>
Set.new(1..5) #=> #<Set: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}>
Set.new([1, 2, 3]) { |x| x * x } #=> #<Set: {1, 4, 9}>
# File lib/set.rb, line 93

@hash ||= Hash.new(false)
enum.nil? and return
if block
do_with_enum(enum) { |o| add(block[o]) }

merge(enum)
end
end Returns a new set containing elements common to the set and the given enumerable object.
Set[1, 3, 5] & Set[3, 2, 1] #=> #<Set: {3, 1}>
Set['a', 'b', 'z'] & ['a', 'b', 'c'] #=> #<Set: {"a", "b"}>
# File lib/set.rb, line 472
def &(enum)
n = self.class.new
do_with_enum(enum) { |o| n.add(o) if include?(o) }
n
end Returns a new set built by duplicating the set, removing every element that appears in the given enumerable object.
Set[1, 3, 5] - Set[1, 5] #=> #<Set: {3}>
Set['a', 'b', 'z'] - ['a', 'c'] #=> #<Set: {"b", "z"}>
# File lib/set.rb, line 462 def -(enum) dup.subtract(enum) end
Returns true if two sets are equal. The equality of each couple of elements is defined according to Object#eql?.
Set[1, 2] == Set[2, 1] #=> true Set[1, 3, 5] == Set[1, 5] #=> false Set['a', 'b', 'c'] == Set['a', 'c', 'b'] #=> true Set['a', 'b', 'c'] == ['a', 'c', 'b'] #=> false

other.all? { |o| @hash.include?(o) }
else
false
end
end Returns true if the given object is a member of the set, and false otherwise.
Used in case statements:
require 'set' case :apple when Set[:potato, :carrot] "vegetable" when Set[:apple, :banana] "fruit" end # => "fruit"
Or by itself:
Set[1, 2, 3] === 2 #=> true Set[1, 2, 3] === 4 #=> false
Returns a new set containing elements exclusive between the set and the given enumerable object. (set ^ enum) is equivalent to ((set | enum) - (set & enum)).
Set[1, 2] ^ Set[2, 3] #=> #<Set: {3, 1}>
Set[1, 'b', 'c'] ^ ['b', 'd'] #=> #<Set: {"d", 1, "c"}>
# File lib/set.rb, line 485
def ^(enum)
n = Set.new(enum)
each { |o| n.add(o) unless n.delete?(o) }
n
end Adds the given object to the set and returns self. Use merge to add many elements at once.
Set[1, 2].add(3) #=> #<Set: {1, 2, 3}>
Set[1, 2].add([3, 4]) #=> #<Set: {1, 2, [3, 4]}>

Adds the given object to the set and returns self. If the object is already in the set, returns nil.

Set[1, 2].add?([3, 4]) #=> #<Set: {1, 2, [3, 4]}>
Set[1, 2].add?(2) #=> nil
# File lib/set.rb, line 360 def add?(o) add(o) unless include?(o) end
Classifies the set by the return value of the given block and returns a hash of {value => set of elements} pairs. The block is called once for each element of the set, passing the element as parameter.
require 'set'
files = Set.new(Dir.glob("*.rb"))
hash = files.classify { |f| File.mtime(f).year }
hash #=> {2000=>#<Set: {"a.rb", "b.rb"}>,
# 2001=>#<Set: {"c.rb", "d.rb", "e.rb"}>,

Deletes the given object from the set and returns self. Use subtract to delete many items at once.
# File lib/set.rb, line 366 def delete(o) @hash.delete(o) self end
Deletes the given object from the set and returns self. If the object is not in the set, returns nil.
# File lib/set.rb, line 373 def delete?(o) delete(o) if include?(o) end
Deletes every element of the set for which block evaluates to true, and returns self. Returns an enumerator if no block is given.

# File lib/set.rb, line 329 def disjoint?(set) !intersect?(set) end
Divides the set into a set of subsets according to the commonality defined by the given block.
If the arity of the block is 2, elements o1 and o2 are in common if block.call(o1, o2) is true. Otherwise, elements o1 and o2 are in common if block.call(o1) == block.call(o2).
require 'set'

Returns a new set that is a copy of the set, flattening each containing set recursively.
# File lib/set.rb, line 237 def flatten self.class.new.flatten_merge(self) end
Equivalent to #flatten, but replaces the receiver with the result in place. Returns nil if no modifications were made.
# File lib/set.rb, line 243
def flatten!
replace(flatten()) if any? { |e| e.is_a?(Set) }

Note that include? and member? do not test member equality using == as do other Enumerables.
