A @deftech{set} represents a collection of distinct elements.  The following
datatypes are all sets:

@itemize[

  @item{@techlink{hash sets};}

  @item{@techlink{lists} using @racket[equal?] to compare elements; and}

  @item{@techlink{structures} whose types implement the @racket[gen:set]

@section{Hash Sets}

A @deftech{hash set} is a set whose elements are compared via @racket[equal?],
@racket[eqv?], or @racket[eq?] and partitioned via @racket[equal-hash-code],
@racket[eqv-hash-code], or @racket[eq-hash-code].  A hash set is either
immutable or mutable; mutable hash sets retain their elements either strongly
or weakly.

@margin-note{Like operations on immutable hash tables, ``constant time'' hash
set operations actually require @math{O(log N)} time for a set of size
@math{N}.}

A hash set can be used as a @tech{stream} (see @secref["streams"]) and thus as
a single-valued @tech{sequence} (see @secref["sequences"]). The elements of the
set serve as elements of the stream or sequence. If an element is added to or
removed from the hash set during iteration, then an iteration step may fail
with @racket[exn:fail:contract], or the iteration may skip or duplicate
elements. See also @racket[in-set].

Two hash sets are @racket[equal?] when they use the same element-comparison
procedure (@racket[equal?], @racket[eqv?], or @racket[eq?]), both hold elements
strongly or weakly, have the same mutability, and have equivalent
elements. Immutable hash sets support effectively constant-time access and
update, just like mutable hash sets; the constant on immutable operations is
usually larger, but the functional nature of immutable hash sets can pay off in
certain algorithms.

All hash sets @impl{implement} @racket[set->stream],
@racket[set-empty?], @racket[set-member?], @racket[set-count],
@racket[subset?], @racket[proper-subset?], @racket[set-map],
@racket[set-for-each], @racket[set-copy], @racket[set-copy-clear],
@racket[set->list], and @racket[set-first].  Immutable hash sets in
addition @impl{implement} @racket[set-add], @racket[set-remove],
@racket[set-clear], @racket[set-union], @racket[set-intersect],
@racket[set-subtract], and @racket[set-symmetric-difference].  Mutable
hash sets in addition @impl{implement} @racket[set-add!],
@racket[set-remove!], @racket[set-clear!], @racket[set-union!],
@racket[set-intersect!], @racket[set-subtract!], and
@racket[set-symmetric-difference!].

Operations on sets that contain elements that are mutated are
unpredictable in much the same way that @tech{hash table} operations are
unpredictable when keys are mutated.

  Constructs a contract that recognizes sets whose elements match

  If @racket[kind] is @racket['immutable], @racket['mutable], or

  are respectively immutable, mutable with strongly-held keys, or mutable with
  weakly-held keys.  If @racket[kind] is @racket['mutable-or-weak], the
  resulting contract accepts any mutable @tech{hash sets}, regardless of
  key-holding strength.

  If @racket[cmp] is @racket['equal], @racket['eqv], or @racket['eq], the
  resulting contract accepts only @tech{hash sets} that compare elements
  using @racket[equal?], @racket[eqv?], or @racket[eq?], respectively.

  If @racket[cmp] is @racket['eqv] or @racket['eq], then @racket[elem/c] must
  be a @tech{flat contract}.

  If @racket[cmp] and @racket[kind] are both @racket['dont-care], then the
  resulting contract will accept any kind of set, not just @tech{hash
  sets}.

 If @racket[lazy?] is not @racket[#f], then the elements of the set are not checked
 immediately by the contract and only the set itself is checked (according to the
 @racket[cmp] and @racket[kind] arguments). If @racket[lazy?] is
 @racket[#f], then the elements are checked immediately by the contract.
 The @racket[lazy?] argument is ignored when the set contract accepts generic sets
 (i.e., when @racket[cmp] and @racket[kind] are both @racket['dont-care]); in that
 case, the value being checked in that case is a @racket[list?], then the contract
 is not lazy otherwise the contract is lazy.
 
 If @racket[kind] allows mutable sets (i.e., is @racket['dont-care],
 @racket['mutable], @racket['weak], or
 @racket['mutable-or-weak]) and @racket[lazy?] is @racket[#f], then the elements
 are checked both immediately and when they are accessed from the set.

 The @racket[equal-key/c] contract is used when values are passed to the comparison
 and hashing functions used internally.
 
 The result contract will be a @tech{flat contract} when @racket[elem/c]
 and @racket[equal-key/c] are both @tech{flat contracts},
 @racket[lazy?] is @racket[#f], and @racket[kind] is @racket['immutable].
 The result will be a @tech{chaperone contract} when @racket[elem/c] is a
 @tech{chaperone contract}.

@section{Generic Set Interface}


@defidform[gen:set]{

A @tech{generic interface} (see @secref["struct-generics"]) that
supplies set method implementations for a structure type via the
@racket[#:methods] option of @racket[struct] definitions.  This interface can
be used to implement any of the methods documented as
@secref["set-methods"].

@examples[
#:eval set-eval
(struct binary-set [integer]
  #:transparent
  #:methods gen:set
  [(define (set-member? st i)
     (bitwise-bit-set? (binary-set-integer st) i))

                              (arithmetic-shift 1 i))))
   (define (set-remove st i)

}

@subsection[#:tag "set-methods"]{Set Methods}

@(define (supp . args) (apply tech #:key "supported generic method" args))
@(define (impl . args) (apply tech #:key "implemented generic method" args))

The methods of @racket[gen:set] can be classified into three categories, as determined by their fallback implementations:

@itemlist[#:style 'ordered
          @item{methods with no fallbacks,}
          @item{methods whose fallbacks depend on other, non-fallback methods,}
          @item{and methods whose fallbacks can depend on either fallback or non-fallback methods.}]

As an example, implementing the following methods would guarantee that all the methods in @racket[gen:set] would at least have a fallback method:

@itemlist[@item{@racket[set-member?]}
          @item{@racket[set-add]}
          @item{@racket[set-add!]}
          @item{@racket[set-remove]}
          @item{@racket[set-remove!]}
          @item{@racket[set-first]}
          @item{@racket[set-empty?]}
          @item{@racket[set-copy-clear]}]

There may be other such subsets of methods that would guarantee at least a fallback for every method.

Produces a set that includes @racket[v] plus all elements of
@racket[st]. This operation runs in constant time for @tech{hash sets}. Has no fallback.

}

@defproc[(set-add! [st generic-set?] [v any/c]) void?]{

Adds the element @racket[v] to @racket[st].  This operation runs in constant
time for @tech{hash sets}. Has no fallback.

}

@defproc[(set-remove [st generic-set?] [v any/c]) generic-set?]{

Produces a set that includes all elements of @racket[st] except
@racket[v]. This operation runs in constant time for @tech{hash sets}. Has no fallback.

}

@defproc[(set-remove! [st generic-set?] [v any/c]) void?]{

Removes the element @racket[v] from @racket[st].  This operation runs in constant
time for @tech{hash sets}. Has no fallback.

@defproc[(set-first [st (and/c generic-set? (not/c set-empty?))]) any/c]{

Produces an unspecified element of @racket[st]. Multiple uses of

@impl{implements} @racket[set-copy-clear] and @racket[set-add!].

}

@defproc[(set-copy-clear [st generic-set?]) (and/c generic-set? set-empty?)]{

Produces a new, empty set of the same type, mutability, and key strength as
@racket[st].

A difference between @racket[set-copy-clear] and @racket[set-clear] is
that the latter conceptually iterates @racket[set-remove] on the given
set, and so it preserves any contract on the given set. The
@racket[set-copy-clear] function produces a new set without any
contracts.

The @racket[set-copy-clear] function must call concrete set constructors
and thus has no generic fallback.

Produces a set of the same type as @racket[st0] that includes the elements from
@racket[st0] and all of the @racket[st]s.

If @racket[st0] is a list, each @racket[st] must also be a list.  This
operation runs on lists in time proportional to the total size of the
@racket[st]s times the size of the result.

If @racket[st0] is a @tech{hash set}, each @racket[st] must also be a
@tech{hash set} that uses the same comparison function (@racket[equal?],
@racket[eqv?], or @racket[eq?]).  The mutability and key strength of the hash
sets may differ.  This operation runs on hash sets in time proportional to the
total size of all of the sets except the largest immutable set.

At least one set must be provided to @racket[set-union] to determine the type
of the resulting set (list, hash set, etc.).  If there is a case where
@racket[set-union] may be applied to zero arguments, instead pass an empty set

 Impersonates @racket[st], redirecting various set operations via the given procedures.

 The @racket[inject-proc] procedure
 is called whenever an element is temporarily put into the set for the purposes
 of comparing it with other elements that may already be in the set. For example,
 when evaluating @racket[(set-member? s e)], @racket[e] will be passed to the
 @racket[inject-proc] before comparing it with other elements of @racket[s].

 The @racket[add-proc] procedure is called when adding an element to a set, e.g.,
 via @racket[set-add] or @racket[set-add!]. The result of the @racket[add-proc] is
 stored in the set.

 The @racket[shrink-proc] procedure is called when building a new set with
 one fewer element. For example, when evaluating @racket[(set-remove s e)]
 or @racket[(set-remove! s e)],
 an element is removed from a set, e.g.,
 via @racket[set-remove] or @racket[set-remove!]. The result of the @racket[shrink-proc]
 is the element actually removed from the set.
 
 The @racket[extract-proc] procedure is called when an element is pulled out of
 a set, e.g., by @racket[set-first]. The result of the @racket[extract-proc] is
 the element actually produced by from the set.

 The @racket[clear-proc] is called by @racket[set-clear] and @racket[set-clear!]
 and if it returns (as opposed to escaping, perhaps via raising an exception),
 the clearing operation is permitted. Its result is ignored. If @racket[clear-proc]
 is @racket[#f], then clearing is done element by element (via calls into the other
 supplied procedures).

 The @racket[equal-key-proc] is called when an element's hash code is needed of when an
 element is supplied to the underlying equality in the set. The result of
 @racket[equal-key-proc] is used when computing the hash or comparing for equality.
 
 If any of the @racket[inject-proc], @racket[add-proc], @racket[shrink-proc], or
 @racket[extract-proc] arguments are  @racket[#f], then they all must be @racket[#f],
 the @racket[clear-proc] and @racket[equal-key-proc] must also be @racket[#f],
 and there must be at least one property supplied.
 
 Pairs of @racket[prop] and @racket[prop-val] (the number of arguments to
 @racket[impersonate-hash-set] must be odd) add @tech{impersonator properties} or
 override impersonator property values of @racket[st].

Creates a new set type based on the given comparison function @racket[eql?],
hash functions @racket[hash1] and @racket[hash2], and predicate @racket[elem?].
The new set type has variants that are immutable, mutable with strongly-held
elements, and mutable with weakly-held elements.  The given @racket[name] is
used when printing instances of the new set type, and the symbol @racket[who]
is used for reporting errors.

The comparison function @racket[eql?] may accept 2 or 3 arguments.  If it
accepts 2 arguments, it given two elements to compare them.  If it accepts 3
arguments and does not accept 2 arguments, it is also given a recursive
comparison function that handles data cycles when comparing sub-parts of the
elements.

The hash functions @racket[hash1] and @racket[hash2] may accept 1 or 2
arguments.  If either hash function accepts 1 argument, it is applied to a
element to compute the corresponding hash value.  If either hash function
accepts 2 arguments and does not accept 1 argument, it is also given a
recursive hash function that handles data cycles when computing hash values of
sub-parts of the elements.

The predicate @racket[elem?] must accept 1 argument and is used to recognize
valid elements for the new set type.

Produces seven values:

@itemize[
@item{a predicate recognizing all instances of the new set type,}
@item{a predicate recognizing weak instances,}
@item{a predicate recognizing mutable instances,}
@item{a predicate recognizing immutable instances,}
@item{a constructor for weak instances,}
