       Module Set
        : sig end

       Sets over ordered types.

       This module implements the set data structure, given a total ordering function over the set elements. All
       operations over sets are purely applicative (no side-effects).  The implementation uses  balanced  binary
       trees,  and is therefore reasonably efficient: insertion and membership take time logarithmic in the size
       of the set, for instance.

       The Set.Make functor constructs implementations for any type, given a compare  function.   For  instance:
       module  IntPairs = struct type t = int * int let compare (x0,y0) (x1,y1) = match Pervasives.compare x0 x1
       with 0 -> Pervasives.compare y0  y1  |  c  ->  c  end  module  PairsSet  =  Set.Make(IntPairs)  let  m  =
       PairsSet.(empty |> add (2,3) |> add (5,7) |> add (11,13))

       This creates a new module PairsSet , with a new type PairsSet.t of sets of int * int .

       module type OrderedType = sig end

       Input signature of the functor Set.Make .

       module type S = sig end

       Output signature of the functor Set.Make .

       module Make : functor (Ord : OrderedType) -> sig end

       Functor building an implementation of the set structure given a totally ordered type.
