Utilities
result = cgSetUnion(set_a, set_b [, COUNT=long])
This function is used to find the union between two sets of integers.
One alternative for the cgSetUnion algorithm, provided by Maarten Sneep, is simply this:
superset = [set_a, set_b]
union = superset[Uniq(superset, Sort(superset))]
Return value
A vector of values that are found in the combined integer sets.
Parameters
- set_a in required type=integer
A vector of integers.
- set_b in required type=integer
A vector of integers.
Keywords
- COUNT out optional type=long
Set this keyword to a named variable containing the number of integers found in the union.
Examples
IDL> set_a = [1,2,3,4,5] IDL> set_b = [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11] IDL> Print, cgSetUnion(set_a, set_b) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
