| If it would not be too difficult please consider implementing built-in Set functions similar SubSet and EqualSet into Troll. The it might be possible to run a command like: if A sub B then DoSomething (if A is a subset of B then do something) or accumulate x:=6d6 while {6,6} sub x (accumulate while there are two 6s in the roll) You can refer to user-contributed roll_ 'SubSet or EqualSet' for my fudged version of this. Thanks wyrdR |

If you are thinking of a multiset subset test, that is fairly easy to do: If A -- B is empty, then A is a multiset subset of B. So to do something like "if A is a multiset subset of B then C else D", you would write "if A -- B then D else C". Note the swapped branches of the if-then-else. as a function, you can define it byfunction msubset(A,B) = if A--B then {} else 1A "normal" subset test can be done similarly, but using the "drop" operator instead of --. Multiset equality can be found by mutual subset tests: If A is a (multiset) subset of B and B is a (multiset) subset of A, then A and B are the same (multi)sets. Equivalently, function msetEqual(A,B) = if (A--B) U (B--A) then {} else 1I might add these as standard functions at some point, but since they are relatively easy to define, I will postpone until I want to do other changes too. |

| Thanks Torben, I was thinking that, but I was *over-thinking* it. Maybe just writing them up as examples in the next documentation will do :) wyrdR |

| I have added the functions as examples in the left pull-down menu. |
