  • Summary:

    The name of the Set class is formally incorrect. It contains an attribute that implies that the elements in the "set" may not be unique. Elements in a set must be unique. The proper term would be Bag.

  • Disposition: Resolved — MDMI 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    The class name "Set" will be changed to "Bag". In addition, the default value for the attribute "isUnique" will be True, as a Bag most commonly will be a set, i.e., contain no duplicates.
