Union is the name of the function.
And besides that, won't
SetC = SetA & SetB
No, because that would duplicate any elements that are in both lists.
Well, perhaps duplication of elements is a problem.
Exactly.
but my real question is the syntax.
In "set foo to union(SetA, SetB)", "to" is required.
In the function itself, "to" is synonymous with "on"
