+ union-set and adjoin-set has changed. Rest remain unchanged. 
+
+ Performance while adding a new element is O(1). Same with union. 
+ intersection-set remains the same - O(m * n). 
+ element-of-set? also remains the same - O (n).
+
+If duplicates are allowed, then Intersection and element-of-set? performance will degrade.
