Disjoint sets

You are given two sets with unique integers. Write a script to figure out if they are disjoint. The two sets are disjoint if they don’t have any common members.

Examples

Example 1:
Input: @S1 = (1, 2, 5, 3, 4)
       @S2 = (4, 6, 7, 8, 9)
Output: 0 as the given two sets have common member 4.

Example 2:
Input: @S1 = (1, 3, 5, 7, 9)
       @S2 = (0, 2, 4, 6, 8)
Output: 1 as the given two sets do not have common member.

Analysis

I did not submit a solution at the time, but have written this later

Lots of ways to do this, but what I chose was:

• Make a hash of the members of @set2 using $in_set2{$_} = 1 for @set2;
• Loop $j over @set1 and output 0 if $in_set2{$j} exists
• Else output 1

I am sorry that the 'Try it' feature is currently working very slowly or not at all owing to some issue with my web hosting provider.
