            Performs an "intersection" of the two sets, where only the elements
            that are present in both sets remain.  That is, the element is included only if it exists in
            both <code>a</code> and <code>b</code>.  Neither input object is modified by the operation.
            The result object is a <code>Clone()</code> of one of the input objects (<code>a</code> if it is not <code>null</code>) containing the
            elements from the intersect operation.
