 but as has been noted in another thread, the conversion is so easy is
it a problem just to internally convert the set to a list and then do
whatever is made easier in solve? I was just thinking about how I
would use sets to solve a system of equations in an interactive
session, writing the equations and then just getting the set of
symbolic atoms in the equations and passing that as the set of symbols
to solve for. But on the other hand *I* could be the one to make sure
that the set gets turned into a list before sending it. Can you give
an example where it would be inconvenient to handle this translation
within the solve routine itself?
