CharSets
#1
This is an implementation of mathematical sets that deals solely with characters. For an expanded explanation download the pdf readme below -

.pdf   CHARSET README.pdf (Size: 259.26 KB / Downloads: 130)

The actual library consists of a BI file and a BM file. There is also a test program that accompanies these. First off the BI

CHARSET.BI

REM *****************************************************************
REM * Must be called before a charset is used unless that charset  *
REM * is used to hold the results of a set operation.  Valid set    *
REM * operations that can be called in lieu of this routine are -  *
REM * CopySet, MakeSetEmpty, SetComplement, SetUnion, SetDifference,*
REM * SetIntersection and SymmetricSetDifference, where without    *
REM * exception the uninitialised set would be used for the        *
REM * rightmost parameter.                                          *
REM *                                                              *
REM * The string InitialChars is used to specify the initial        *
REM * contents of the CharSet being initialised.  The format of    *
REM * the string is as follows.                                    *
REM *                                                              *
REM * If an empty set is desired it is possible to pass an empty    *
REM * string "" to this routine, although the routine MakeSetEmpty  *
REM * would probably be quicker.                                    *
REM *                                                              *
REM * A range of characters can be specified by the use of a        *
REM * trigraph (...) in the form a...z which would tell this        *
REM * routine to include all the characters from lower case 'a' to  *
REM * lower case 'z' inclusive.  More than one range of characters  *
REM * may be specified for a set, but all ranges MUST be the first  *
REM * of the characters specified.                                  *
REM *                                                              *
REM * A list of the actual characters required to be contained      *
REM * within the set such as "axwf9\" may be part of (or the whole  *
REM * of) the string, but MUST appear after any range(s) of        *
REM * characters.                                                  *
