Set operators #19

Open verdverm opened 2 years ago

verdverm commented 2 years ago

Set operators on structs could be useful.

Extending them to lists could prove difficult, particularly lists of structs (which are difficult for all operations). Lists of basics could be done with a package (Go generics helpful here?).

intersection
difference
symmetric difference
subset test
superset test
others?

union & intersection seem to have overlap with insert/upsert & pick respectively

maybe super/subset could be called contains/containedby?
