4,503 PointsAre there instances where order matters with Intersection?
The video mentions that order of set1 and set2 does not matter for Union and Symmetric Difference. It seems like the same would be true of Intersection, and that's what I've seen when I played with the operation.
Are there situations where set1 & set2 would NOT equal set2 & set1?
