Would NSSet cut the mustard here?


NSArray allows duplicate items; NSSet does not. What do you propose happen if one or both NSArray inputs have items that compare as equal?

Algorithmically speaking, a merge sort from two inputs into a new output seems pretty simple. Simply choose the lesser of the two available next-items and append it to the new array. Or if both next- items are equal, choose one arbitrarily.
