    Sure, what's the actual problem - show some code.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Code:
    int i;
    int a[10],b[10],c[10];
    for(i=0;i<10;i++)
    scanf("&#37;d",&a[i]);
    for(i=0;i<10;i++)
    scanf("%d",&b[i]);
    now
    suppouse i entered 1,2,3 in a[0],a[1],a[2]
    and 4,5,6 in b[0],b[1],b[2] respectively
    i want 1,2,3,4,5,6 to be copied to c[0],c[1],c[2],c[3],c[4],c[5]
    i think i am clear with my question

    Have you written a 'isMemberOfSet' function?

    If you have one of these, then writing union and intersection is just a matter of repeatedly calling that function in a loop and deciding what to do with the true/false answer.
