<h3 class="section">26.1 Set Operations</h3>
<p>Octave supports the basic set operations. That is, Octave can compute
the union, intersection, complement, and difference of two sets.
Octave also supports the <em>Exclusive Or</em> set operation, and
membership determination. The functions for set operations all work in
pretty much the same way. As an example, assume that <code>x</code> and
<code>y</code> contains two sets, then
<pre class="example"> union(x, y)
</pre>
<p class="noindent">computes the union of the two sets.

<blockquote><p>Return a matrix <var>tf</var> with the same shape as <var>A</var> which has a 1 if
<code>A(i,j)</code> is in <var>S</var> and 0 if it is not. If a second output argument
is requested, the index into <var>S</var> of each of the matching elements is
also returned.
<pre class="example"> a = [3, 10, 1];
s = [0:9];
[tf, s_idx] = ismember (a, s);
tf = [1, 0, 1]
s_idx = [4, 0, 2]
</pre>
<p>The inputs, <var>A</var> and <var>S</var>, may also be cell arrays.
<pre class="example"> a = {'abc'};
s = {'abc', 'def'};
[tf, s_idx] = ismember (a, s);
tf = [1, 0]
s_idx = [1, 0]
</pre>
<p>With the optional third argument <code>"rows"</code>, and matrices
<var>A</var> and <var>S</var> with the same number of columns, compare rows in
<var>A</var> with the rows in <var>S</var>.
<pre class="example"> a = [1:3; 5:7; 4:6];
s = [0:2; 1:3; 2:4; 3:5; 4:6];
[tf, s_idx] = ismember(a, s, 'rows');
tf = logical ([1; 0; 1])
