term_union : term list -> term list -> term list

SYNOPSIS
Union of two sets of terms up to alpha-equivalence.

DESCRIPTION
The call term_union l1 l2 for two lists of terms l1 and l2 returns a list including all of l2 and all terms of l1 for which no alpha-equivalent term occurs in l2 or earlier in l1. If both lists were sets modulo alpha-conversion, i.e. contained no alpha-equivalent pairs, then so will be the result.

FAILURE CONDITIONS
Never fails.

EXAMPLE
  # term_union [`1`; `2`] [`2`; `3`];;
  val it : term list = [`1`; `2`; `3`]

  # term_union [`!x. x >= 0`; `?u. u > 0`] [`?w. w > 0`; `!u. u >= 0`];;
  val it : term list = [`?w. w > 0`; `!u. u >= 0`]

USES
For combining assumption lists of theorems without duplication of alpha-equivalent ones.
