(Any) method Set §
Defined as:
method Set(--> Set) is nodal
Coerces the invocant to Set, whereby Positionals are treated as lists of values.
Class: List §
From List
(List) method Set §
In general, creates a set which has as members elements of the list.
say <æ ß þ €>.Set; # OUTPUT: «Set(ß æ þ €)»
However, there might be some unexpected changes in case the list includes non-scalar data structures. For instance, with Pairs:
my = (:42a, :33b);say ; # OUTPUT: «[a => 42 b => 33]» say .Set; # OUTPUT: «Set(a b)»
The set will be composed of the key
s of the Pair whose corresponding value is not 0, eliminating all the values. Please check the Set
documentation for more examples and a more thorough explanation.
