<h3 class="section">27.1 Set Operations</h3>

<p>Octave supports several basic set operations.  Octave can compute the union,
intersection, and difference of two sets.  Octave also supports the
<em>Exclusive Or</em> set operation.
</p>
<p>The functions for set operations all work in the same way by accepting two
input sets and returning a third set.  As an example, assume that <code>a</code> and
<code>b</code> contains two sets, then
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">union (a, b)
</pre></div>

<p>computes the union of the two sets.
</p>
<p>Finally, determining whether elements belong to a set can be done with the
<code>ismember</code> function.  Because sets are ordered this operation is very
efficient and is of order O(log2(n)) which is preferable to the <code>find</code>
function which is of order O(n).

<dd>
<p>Return the unique elements common to both <var>a</var> and <var>b</var> sorted in
ascending order.
</p>
<p>If <var>a</var> and <var>b</var> are both row vectors then return a row vector;
Otherwise, return a column vector.  The inputs may also be cell arrays of
strings.
</p>
<p>If the optional input <code>&quot;rows&quot;</code> is given then return the common rows of
<var>a</var> and <var>b</var>.  The inputs must be 2-D matrices to use this option.
