Subject: [ruby-core:45415] [ruby-trunk - Feature #6515] array.c: added method that verifies if an Array is part of another


Issue #6515 has been updated by lellisga (Li Ellis Galardo).


Sorry but i'm not sure what you are asking. In other words you really think it's easier to do this:


a = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7].to_set
 => #<Set: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}> 
b = [1,2,3].to_set
 => #<Set: {1, 2, 3}> 
b.subset? a
 => true 

If you answer is yes, then we are doing this wrong because subset? or part_of method should be in a parent class (maybe Enumerable class ) in order for it to work for subset, array, hash and any data structure that inherit from it Enumerable.

There's a difference between subset and arrays isn't it? they should have different methods, eventually some of them will work for subset just as they work for arrays.

This method is like the include? method but instead of receiving a value and check if the array has it, it receives an array an check if it's part of another one.
