Javascript Set operations with Sets, Arrays & Objects.
npm i set-operations
npm run build

isSubset, isSuperSet, isDisjoint: (A, B)
returns boolean
union, intersection, difference, symmetric difference: (A, B)
returns Array | Obj | Set
Superset (A ⊇ B) : checks if A is superset of B, i.e. all elements of B are also elements of A.
import {isSuperSet} from "set-operations";
isSuperSet(new Set([1, 8, 3, 5]), new Set([3, 8]));
// true
isSuperSet(new Set([1, 8, 3, 5]), new Set([3, 9]));
// false
isSuperSet([1, 8, 3, 5], [3, 8]);
// true
isSuperSet([1, 8, 3, 5], [3, 9]);
// false
isSuperSet(["apple", "orange", "banana"], ["banana"]);
// true
isSuperSet(
{id: "xyz", name: "john doe", age: 59, work: "janitor"},
{id: "xyz", work: "janitor"}
);
// true
isSuperSet(
{id: "xyz", name: "john doe", age: 59, work: "janitor"},
{id: "xyz", work: "janitor", likes: "football"}
);
// false
Subset (A ⊆ B) : checks if A is subset of B, i.e. all elements of A are also elements of B.
import {isSubSet} from "set-operations";
isSubSet(new Set([4, 5]), new Set([1, 9, 4, 8, 34, 43, 5]));
// true
isSubSet(
new Set(["red", "blue"]),
new Set(["violet", "indigo", "blue", "green", "yellow", "orange", "red"])
);
// true
isSubSet([4, 5], [1, 9, 4, 8, 34, 43, 5]);
// true
isSubSet(
["red", "blue"],
["violet", "indigo", "blue", "green", "yellow", "orange", "red"]
);
// true
isSubSet(
{id: "xyz", work: "janitor"},
{id: "xyz", name: "john doe", age: 59, work: "janitor"}
);
// true
isSubSet(
{a: 1, b: 2, c: 3},
{b: 2, c: 3}
);
// false
Disjoint (A ∩ B = ϕ) : checks if A and B are disjoint i.e. A and B have no elements in common.
import {isDisjoint} from "set-operations";
isDisjoint(new Set([2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19]), new Set([1, 4, 9, 16]));
// true
isDisjoint(new Set([4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18]), new Set([1, 4, 9, 16]));
// false
isDisjoint([2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19], [1, 4, 9, 16]);
// true
isDisjoint([4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18], [1, 4, 9, 16]);
// false
isDisjoint(
{a: 2, b: 3, c: 5, d: 7, e: 11, f: 13, g: 17, h: 19},
{a: 1, b: 4, c: 9, d: 16}
);
// true
Union (A ∪ B): creates a Set/Arr/Obj that contains the elements of both A and B.
import {union} from "set-operations";
union(new Set(["rio", "delhi", "nairobi"]), new Set(["morocco", "algeria", "texas"]));
// Set(6) [ "rio", "delhi", "nairobi", "morocco", "algeria", "texas" ]
union(["rio", "delhi", "nairobi"], ["morocco", "algeria", "texas"]);
// [ "rio", "delhi", "nairobi", "morocco", "algeria", "texas" ]
union(
{firstname: "john", lastname: "doe"},
{age: 59, hobbies: ["fishing", "cycling"]}
);
// { firstname: "john", lastname: "doe", age: 59, hobbies: [ "fishing", "cycling" ] }
note: for objects, union puts the elements of A and elements of B in to a new object - {...A, ...B,}, if the keys of elements in both A and B are same then the elements of B replaces elements of A.
Intersection (A ∩ B): creates a Set/Arr/Obj that contains those elements of A that are also in B.
import {intersection} from "set-operations";
intersection(new Set([67, 21, 52, 78, 32, 321, 98, 97]), new Set([342, 52, 63, 89, 21]));
// Set [ 52, 21 ]
intersection([67, 21, 52, 78, 32, 321, 98, 97], [342, 52, 63, 89, 21]);
// [ 21, 52 ]
intersection(
{a: {a: 1, b: {c: 2, d: 3}}, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4, e: 5},
{e: 5, f: 6, c: 3, a: {a: 1, b: {c: 2, d: 3}}}
);
// { a: { a: 1, b: { c: 2, d: 3 } }, c: 3, e: 5 }
Difference (A \ B): creates a Set/Arr/Obj that contains those elements of A that are not in B.
import {difference} from "set-operations";
difference(new Set([43, 562, 52, 223, 652, 1]), new Set([43, 42, 524, 542, 100, 52]));
// Set(4) [ 562, 223, 652, 1 ]
difference([43, 562, 52, 223, 652, 1], [43, 42, 524, 542, 100, 52]);
// [ 562, 223, 652, 1 ]
difference(
{a: {a: 1, b: {c: 2, d: 3}}, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4, e: 5},
{e: 5, f: 6, c: 3, a: {a: 1, b: {c: 2, d: 3}}}
);
// { b: 2, d: 4 }
Symmetric Difference (A ∆ B): creates a Set/Arr/Obj of all elements which are in A or B but not both.
import {symmetricDifference} from "set-operations";
symmetricDifference(new Set([0, 1, 2, 3, 4]), new Set([5, 6, 7, 8, 9]));
// Set(10) [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 ]
symmetricDifference([0, 1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]);
// [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 ]
symmetricDifference(
["sun", "rises", "in", "the", "east"],
["sun", "sets", "in", "the", "west"]
);
// [ "rises", "east", "sets", "west" ]
symmetricDifference(
{a: {a: 1, b: {c: 2, d: 3}}, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4, e: 5},
{e: 5, f: 6, c: 3, a: {a: 1, b: {c: 2, d: 3}}}
);
// { b: 2, d: 4, f: 6 }
note: for objects, symmetric difference performs difference on A to B and then B to A and puts the elements in to a new object - {...difference(A, B), ...difference(B, A)}, if the keys of elements in both A and B are same then the elements of B replaces elements of A.
symmetricDifference(
{star: "sun", does: "rises", direction: "east"},
{star: "sun", does: "sets", direction: "west"}
);
// { does: "sets", direction: "west" }
