(difference) function - error?

Fanda · Post by **Fanda** » Sat Aug 20, 2005 4:16 am

Hello!
I am testing the newLISP v.8.6.2 on Win32 MinGW.

I tried the difference with example from the manual:
(difference '(2 5 6 0 3 5 0 2) '(1 2 3 3 2 1)) => (5 6 0)
but in my case it returns: (5 6 0 5) - which isn't a unique list

Is it an error?

what does (difference '(2 5 6 0 3 5 0 2) '(1 2 3 3 2 1) true) return ?
Could be that its switched in the C code?

The result should be unique in (difference '(2 5 6 0 3 5 0 2) '(1 2 3 3 2 1)) , this will be fixed shortly.
