In Redis, we can use the SISMEMBER
command to find out whether or not a set contains a given member.

Fix “ERR wrong number of arguments for ‘sintercard’ command” in Redis
If you’re getting an error that reads “ERR wrong number of arguments for ‘sintercard’ command” in Redis, it’s because you’re calling the SINTERCARD
command with the wrong number of arguments.
To fix this issue, make sure you’re passing the correct number of arguments.
Continue readingRedis SINTERCARD Command Explained
In Redis, the SINTERCARD
command returns the cardinality of the set which would result from the intersection of all the given sets. It’s similar to SINTER
, but instead of returning the result set, it returns just the cardinality of the result.
The SINTERCARD
command was introduced in Redis 7.0.0.
Redis SINTERSTORE Command Explained
In Redis, the SINTERSTORE
command is the same as the SINTER
command, except that it stores the result in the specified key, instead of returning it.
It stores the members of the set resulting from the intersection of all the given sets.
If the destination key already exists, it’s overwritten. If it doesn’t exist, it’s created and the resulting members are added to it.

In Redis, the SINTER
command returns the members of the set resulting from the intersection of all the given sets.
How to Set an Expiry Only When the New Expiry is Less Than the Existing Expiry in Redis
When setting a timeout on a key in Redis, we have the option of setting the timeout only if it’s less than the existing timeout. We can do this with the LT
option of commands such as EXPIRE
, EXPIREAT
, PEXPIRE
, and PEXPIREAT
.
How to Return a Key’s Value and Set its Expiry in a Single Operation in Redis
In Redis, typically when we want to return a key’s value, we use the GET
command. But there’s also a GETEX
command (introduced in Redis 6.2.0) that allows us to get the value and return it’s expiry at the same time.
Redis SDIFFSTORE Command Explained
In Redis, the SDIFFSTORE
command works just like the SDIFF
command, except that instead of returning the result, it stores it in the key that we specify. The destination key will then hold the members of the set resulting from the difference between the first set and all the successive sets.
Redis SDIFF Command Explained
In Redis, the SDIFF
command returns the members of the set resulting from the difference between the first set and all the successive sets. In other words, it returns all members of the first set that aren’t in any of the successive sets.
How to Return the Expiry Time as a Unix Timestamp in Redis
In Redis, we have several options for returning the expiry time of a key. One option from Redis 7.0.0 and above is to return it as a Unix timestamp.
When returning the expiry as a Unix timestamp, we can have it returned in seconds or milliseconds. To return it in seconds, we can use the EXPIRETIME
command. To return it in milliseconds, we can use the PEXPIRETIME
command.
