Set::Intspan 1.06 has been uploaded to PAUSE and is propagating
through the CPAN. In version 1.05, the expression
Set::IntSpan->new->union("0")
returned the empty set. In version 1.06, it returns the set {0}.
>From the README file:
Set::IntSpan VERSION 1.06 - Manages sets of integers
DESCRIPTION
Set::IntSpan manages sets of integers. It is optimized for sets that
have long runs of consecutive integers. These arise, for example, in
.newsrc files, which maintain lists of articles:
alt.foo: 1-21,28,31
alt.bar: 1-14192,14194,14196-14221
Sets are stored internally in a run-length coded form. This provides
for both compact storage and efficient computation. In particular,
set operations can be performed directly on the encoded
representation.
