Swift Set isDisjoint()

In this tutorial, we will learn about the Swift Set isDisjoint() method with the help of examples.

The isDisjoint() method returns true if two sets are disjoint sets. If not, it returns false.

Example

var A: Set = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
var B: Set = [12,13,14]


// check if A is disjoint with B or not
print(A.isDisjoint(with: B))


// Output: true

isDisjoint() Syntax

The syntax of the set isDisjoint() method is:

set.isDisjoint(otherSet)

Here, set is an object of the Set class.

isDisjoint() Parameters

The isDisjoint() method takes a single parameter:

  • otherSet - The set of elements.

isDisjoint() Return Value

  • The isDisjoint() method returns true if set is disjoint with otherSet. If not, it returns false.

Example: Swift Set isDisjoint()

var A: Set = [1, 2, 3, 4]
var B: Set = [5, 6, 7]
var C: Set = [4, 5, 6]


// check if A and B are disjoint or not
print("Are A and B disjoint?", A.isDisjoint(with: B))



// check if A and C are disjoint or not
print("Are A and C disjoint?", A.isDisjoint(with: C))

Output

Are A and B disjoint? true
Are A and C disjoint? false

Here, we have used the isDisjoint() method to check if two sets are disjoint or not.

Since

  • A and B have unique elements, the method returns true.
  • A and C both have element 4, the method returns false.
