- Easier to query for orders that do, set-subtract from all orders using HashSet(HashMap) constructors and the set.removeAll(set) method.
- Similarly: Use Set Intersection to find all orders that include product X and product Y, using the set.retainAll(set) method.
Tackle Advanced Projects
- Handle Incoming Emails Programmatically
