sicp exercise 2.60
;; Exercise 2.60. We specified that a set would be represented as a list with no duplicates. Now suppose we allow duplicates. For instance, the set {1,2,3} could be represented as the list (2 3 2 1 3 2 2). Design procedures element-of-set?, adjoin-set, union-set, and intersection-set that operate on this representation. How does the efficiency of each compare with the corresponding procedure for the non-duplicate representation? Are there applications for which you would use this representation in preference to the non-duplicate one?
(define true #t)
(define false #f)
(define (append list1 list2)
(cond ((null? list1) list2)
(else (cons (car list1) (append (cdr list1) list2)))))
(define (element-of-set? ele set)
(cond ((null? set) false)
((= (car set) ele) true)
(else (element-of-set? ele (cdr set)))))
(define (adjoin-set ele set)
(cons ele set))
(define (union-set set1 set2)
(append set1 set2))
(define (intersection-set set1 set2)
(cond ((or (null? set1) (null? set2)) (list))
((element-of-set? (car set1) set2) (cons (car set1) (intersection-set (cdr set1) set2)))
(else (intersection-set (cdr set1) set2))))
(define set1 (list 1 2 3 4 1 2 3))
(define set2 (list 9 8 3 1 3 8 9))
(define set3 (list 9 8 7 6 7 7 7))
(display (union-set set1 set2)) (newline)
(display (union-set set1 set3)) (newline)
(display (union-set set2 set3)) (newline)
(display (adjoin-set 100 set1)) (newline)
(display (intersection-set set1 set2)) (newline)
;; the adjoin-set and union-set can be done in O(1) instead of O(n) and O(n^2)
;; the element-of-set? and intersection-set are still O(n) and O(n^2)
