Answer» A SET is an owner record and, optionally, its MEMBER records. There are three TYPES of pointers: next, prior and owner, but only next is required. There are five possible orders for arrangements of sets; they are: first - insert at beginning, last - insert at end of set, next - insert after current of set, prior - insert prior to current of set and SORTED - insert ACCORDING to sort value.
