setunion

Union of Sets


Description

Returns the union of objects inheriting from class Set.

Usage

setunion(..., simplify = TRUE)

## S3 method for class 'Set'
x + y

## S3 method for class 'Set'
x | y

Arguments

...

Sets

simplify

logical, if TRUE (default) returns the result in its simplest (unwrapped) form, usually a Set, otherwise a UnionSet.

x, y

Set

Details

The union of N sets, X1, ..., XN, is defined as the set of elements that exist in one or more sets,

U = {x : x ε X1 or x ε X2 or ... or x ε XN}

The union of multiple ConditionalSets is given by combining their defining functions by an 'or', |, operator. See examples.

The union of fuzzy and crisp sets first coerces fuzzy sets to crisp sets by finding their support.

Value

An object inheriting from Set containing the union of supplied sets.
