We have: a hash, i.e. mapping from one set to another; a set.
We need to restrict the domain of this mapping to the set and by the set.
Note: the set may not be a subset of the domain of our mapping.

Restriction to the set:

%h1=( 1=>"one", 2 => "two", 3 => "three", 4 => "four"); @set=(1, 3, 5, 7); my %h2; $h2{$_} = $h1{$_} for grep exists $h1{$_}, @set;

Restriction by the set:

%h1=( 1=>"one", 2 => "two", 3 => "three", 4 => "four"); @set=(1, 3, 5, 7); my %h2 = %h1; delete $h2{$_} for grep exists $h1{$_}, @set;

What about the same for values? (restrict the range to the set and by the set)?
