; We specified that a set would be represented as a list with no duplicates. Now
; suppose we allow duplicates. For instance, the set {1, 2, 3} could be represented
; as the list (2 3 2 1 3 2 2). Design procedures element-of-set?, adjoin-set,
; union-set, and intersection-set that operate on this representation. How does
; the efficiency of each compare with the corresponding procedure for the
; non-duplicate representation? Are there applications for which you would use
; this representation in preference to the non-duplicate one?
; Unchanged
(define (element-of-set? x set)
(cond ((null? set) false)
((equal? x (car set)) #t)
(else (element-of-set? x (cdr set)))))
(define (adjoin-set x set) (cons x set))
(define (union-set set1 set2) (append set1 set2))
(define (intersection-set set1 set2)
(cond ((or (null? set1) (null? set2)) '())
((element-of-set? (car set1) set2)
(cons (car set1)
(intersection-set (cdr set1) set2)))
(else (intersection-set (cdr set1) set2))))
(intersection-set (list 1 1 3 3 4 5) (list 3 3 5))
; (3 3 5)
(union-set (list 1 2 2 3) (list 3 4 7))
; (1 2 2 3 3 4 7)
; Note: For intersection, i quite didn't get the question, hence assuming the method
; remains the same as previous
; Both `adjoin-set` and `union-set` have O(1) running time
