<I>generalized-boolean</I>---a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_g.htm#generalized_boolean"><I>generalized boolean</I></A>. <P>
<P><B>Description:</B><P>
<P>
<A REL=DEFINITION HREF="#subsetp"><B>subsetp</B></A> returns <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#true"><I>true</I></A> if every element of <I>list-1</I> <I>matches</I> some element of <I>list-2</I>, and <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#false"><I>false</I></A> otherwise. <P>
Whether a list element is the same as another list element is determined by the functions specified by the keyword arguments. The first argument to the <TT>:test</TT> or <TT>:test-not</TT> function is typically part of an element of <I>list-1</I> extracted by the <TT>:key</TT> function; the second argument is typically part of an element of <I>list-2</I> extracted by the <TT>:key</TT> function. <P>
The argument to the <TT>:key</TT> function is an element of either <I>list-1</I> or <I>list-2</I>; the return value is part of the element of the supplied list element. If <TT>:key</TT> is not supplied or <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="a_nil.htm#nil"><B>nil</B></A>, the <I>list-1</I> or <I>list-2</I> element itself is supplied to the <TT>:test</TT> or <TT>:test-not</TT> function. <P>
