type t: A set of values of heterogeneous types

type 'a key: A unique "key" to access a value of type 'a in a set

val newkey : unit -> 'a key

newkey () creates a new unique key that can be used to access a 'a value in a set. Each key created with newkey is distinct from any other key, even if they have the same type.

Not thread-safe.

val empty : t: Empty set.

val set : key:'a key -> 'a -> t -> t: set ~key v set maps key to v in set. It means that for every set, get ~key (set ~key v set) = Some v.

val get : key:'a key -> t -> 'a option: get ~key set obtains the value for key in set, if any.

val get_exn : key:'a key -> t -> 'a

Same as get, but can fail.

raises Not_found: if the key is not present.

val cardinal : t -> int: Number of mappings.
