[Rd] 'union' does not handle factors while 'intersect' does (PR#9589)

2007-03-29 Thread prechelt
Full_Name: Lutz Prechelt Version: 2.4.1 OS: Windows XP Submission from: (NULL) (160.45.111.67) 'union' ignores the fact if its arguments are factors while all other set operations (intersect, setdiff, setequal, is.element) treat them sensibly. The manpage does not even mention the te
