[This topic is pre-release documentation and is subject to change in future releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

Determines if two collections are disjoint, considered as sets. Two sets are disjoint if they have no common items.

Namespace: Wintellect.PowerCollections
Assembly:  PowerCollections (in PowerCollections.dll)

Syntax

C#
public static bool DisjointSets<T>(
	IEnumerable<T> collection1,
	IEnumerable<T> collection2
)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Shared Function DisjointSets(Of T) ( _
	collection1 As IEnumerable(Of T), _
	collection2 As IEnumerable(Of T) _
) As Boolean
Visual C++
public:
generic<typename T>
static bool DisjointSets (
	IEnumerable<T>^ collection1, 
	IEnumerable<T>^ collection2
)

Parameters

collection1
IEnumerable<(Of <T>)>
The first collection.
collection2
IEnumerable<(Of <T>)>
The second collection.

Return Value

True if collection1 are collection2 are disjoint, considered as sets.

Type Parameters

T

Remarks

The default sense of equality for T is used, as defined by T's implementation of IComparable<T>.Equals or object.Equals.

If both collections are Set, Bag, OrderedSet, or OrderedBag collections, it is more efficient to use the IsDisjoint method on that class.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
System..::ArgumentNullExceptioncollection1 or collection2 is null.
