Set.js

Build Status Dependency Status devDependency Status NPM

Usage

Create an array of items and then pass it to Set.

var Set = require('./set')
var set = new Set([0,1,1])
// And then when we get it
set.get() // [0,1]

Note on input types

This module casts inputs into strings. Objects and Arrays are turned into JSON with JSON.stringify. This makes this module fairly simple as it doesn't allow complex objects to be stored. However, given that Objects and Arrays are now JSONified, these objects can now be compared according to their JSON output. To make two objects unique, give them a different output for their toJSON method.

In a future version, this module would use a javascript Set as the datastructure and therefore won't have this limitation, but Sets are quite ready yet.
