This method will test the <code>Set</code> against another <code>Set</code> for "equality".
In this case, "equality" means that the two sets contain the same elements.
The "==" and "!=" operators are not overridden by design. If you wish to check
for "equivalent" <code>Set</code> instances, use <code>Equals()</code>. If you wish to check
to see if two references are actually the same object, use "==" and "!=".

I have been working in IT since 1975, in various roles from junior programmer to system architect, and with many different languages and platforms. I have written shedloads of code.
I now live in Bedfordshire, England. As well as working full time I am the primary carer for my wife who has MS. I am learning to play the piano. I have three grown up children and a cat.
