Set type
--------
The set type models the mathematical notion of a set. The set's
basetype can only be an ordinal type. The reason is that sets are implemented
as high performance bit vectors.
Sets can be constructed via the set constructor: ``{}`` is the empty set. The
empty set is type compatible with any special set type. The constructor
can also be used to include elements (and ranges of elements) in the set:
.. code-block:: nimrod
{'a'..'z', '0'..'9'} # This constructs a set that contains the
# letters from 'a' to 'z' and the digits
# from '0' to '9'
These operations are supported by sets:

operation meaning
================== ========================================================
``A + B`` union of two sets
``A * B`` intersection of two sets
``A - B`` difference of two sets (A without B's elements)
``A == B`` set equality
``A <= B`` subset relation (A is subset of B or equal to B)
``A < B`` strong subset relation (A is a real subset of B)
``e in A`` set membership (A contains element e)
``A -+- B`` symmetric set difference (= (A - B) + (B - A))
``card(A)`` the cardinality of A (number of elements in A)
``incl(A, elem)`` same as A = A + {elem}
``excl(A, elem)`` same as A = A - {elem}
