implementing set theory operations in php

Question

How to implement set theory operations in pure php?

Answer 1

Which operations are you looking for? What are you trying to accomplish?

In PHP an array is (imperfectly) analogous to a set, and PHP has array_intersect, array_merge (union), and array_diff (complement) functions built in. There's also array_uintersect and array_udiff for handling complex objects whose comparisons are not so straightforward.

Is there further functionality you need?
