Functions

func AppendUnique

func AppendUnique(set1, set2 []string) []string

Merge two string slices, only adding values from set2 that were not already present in set1. The resulting slice will not be unique if there are repeat entries in set1, but repeat entries in set2 will only be appended once.

func StringsInclude

func StringsInclude(set []string, check string) bool

Check if the string in the check variable is a member of the set of strings.

func StringsSubtract

func StringsSubtract(set []string, rm string) []string

Given a slice of strings, return the slice without the string in the rm variable, if it exists in the set.
