## Table.difference
```tomo
Table.difference : func(t: {K:V}, other: {K:V} -> {K:V})

| Argument | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| t | {K:V} |
The base table. | - |
| other | {K:V} |
The other table. | - |
Return: A table containing the common key/value pairs whose keys only appear in one table.
Example: ```tomo t1 := {"A”: 1; “B”: 2, “C”: 3} t2 := {"B”: 2, “C”:30, “D”: 40} assert t1.difference(t2) == {"A”: 1, “D”: 40}
## Table.get
```tomo
Table.get : func(t: {K:V}, key: K -> V?)
Retrieves the value associated with a key, or returns none if the key is not present.
Default values for the table are ignored.

|---|---|---|---|
| t | {K:V} |
The table. | - |
| key | K |
The key whose associated value is to be retrieved. | - |
Return: The value associated with the key or none if the key is not found.

## Table.get_or_set
```tomo
Table.get_or_set : func(t: &{K:V}, key: K, default: V -> V?)
If the given key is in the table, return the associated value. Otherwise, insert the given default value into the table and return it.
If no default value is provided explicitly, but the table has a default value associated with it, the table’s default value will be used. The default value is only evaluated if the key is missing.
| Argument | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| t | &{K:V} |
The table. | - |
| key | K |
The key whose associated value is to be retrieved. | - |
| default | V |
The default value to insert and return if the key is not present in the table. | - |
Return: Either the value associated with the key (if present) or the default value. The table will be mutated if the key is not already present.
Example: ```tomo t := &{"A”: @[1, 2, 3]; default=@[]} t.getorset(“A”).insert(4) t.getorset(“B”).insert(99) assert t == &{"A”: @[1, 2, 3, 4], “B”: @[99]}
assert t.getorset(“C”, @[0, 0, 0]) == @[0, 0, 0] assert t == &{"A”: @[1, 2, 3, 4], “B”: @[99], “C”: @[0, 0, 0]}
## Table.has
```tomo
Table.has : func(t: {K:V}, key: K -> Bool)
Checks if the table contains a specified key.
| Argument | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| t | {K:V} |
The table. | - |
| key | K |
The key to check for presence. | - |
Return: yes if the key is present, no otherwise.
Example: ```tomo assert {"A”: 1, “B”: 2}.has(“A”) == yes assert {"A”: 1, “B”: 2}.has(“xxx”) == no
## Table.intersection
```tomo
Table.intersection : func(t: {K:V}, other: {K:V} -> {K:V})
Return a table with only the matching key/value pairs that are common to both tables.
| Argument | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| t | {K:V} |
The base table. | - |
| other | {K:V} |
The other table. | - |
Return: A table containing the common key/value pairs shared between two tables.
Example: ```tomo t1 := {"A”: 1; “B”: 2, “C”: 3} t2 := {"B”: 2, “C”:30, “D”: 40} assert t1.intersection(t2) == {"B”: 2}
## Table.remove
```tomo
Table.remove : func(t: {K:V}, key: K -> Void)

The key of the key-value pair to remove. | - |
Return: Nothing.
Example: ```tomo t := {"A”: 1, “B”: 2} t.remove(“A”) assert t == {"B”: 2}
## Table.set
```tomo
Table.set : func(t: {K:V}, key: K, value: V -> Void)
Sets or updates the value associated with a specified key.
| Argument | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| t | {K:V} |
The reference to the table. | - |
| key | K |
The key to set or update. | - |
| value | V |
The value to associate with the key. | - |
Return: Nothing.
Example: ```tomo t := {"A”: 1, “B”: 2} t.set(“C”, 3) assert t == {"A”: 1, “B”: 2, “C”: 3}
## Table.with

|---|---|---|---|
| t | {K:V} |
The base table. | - |
| other | {K:V} |
The other table from which new key/value pairs will be added. | - |
Return: The original table, but with values from the other table added.
Example: ```tomo t := {"A”: 1; “B”: 2} assert t.with({"B”: 20, “C”: 30}) == {"A”: 1, “B”: 20, “C”: 30}
## Table.with_fallback
```tomo
Table.with_fallback : func(t: {K:V}, fallback: {K:V}? -> {K:V})

## Table.without
```tomo
Table.without : func(t: {K:V}, other: {K:V} -> {K:V})
Return a copy of a table, but without any of the exact key/value pairs found in the other table.
Only exact key/value pairs will be discarded. Keys with a non-matching value will be kept.
