Math.js is an extensive math library for JavaScript and Node.js. It features a flexible expression parser with support for symbolic computation, comes with a large set of built-in functions and constants, and offers an integrated solution to work with dif

   * Create the intersection of two (multi)sets.

   * Syntax:
   *
   *    math.setIntersect(set1, set2)
   *
   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.setIntersect([1, 2, 3, 4], [3, 4, 5, 6])            // returns [3, 4]
   *    math.setIntersect([[1, 2], [3, 4]], [[3, 4], [5, 6]])    // returns [3, 4]
