Install the ruby external, and make a simple external that does this? set1 & set2 and does it all in linear time too, instead of (presumably) quadratic.
it's the exact same syntax for Python (starting with version 2.4)
Thanks. I haven't done much with Python since the 2.3 days. Um, actually, it looks like it's more like: list( set(set1) & set(set2) )
Ok, it's not really the same. Ruby has no Set class, there's no & for Hashes, and the & for Arrays preserves order of elements of the left-hand side.
