how to create a set in code example
Example 1: empty set python
# Distinguish set and dictionary while creating empty set
# initialize a with {}
a = {}
# check data type of a
print(type(a))
# initialize a with set()
a = set()
# check data type of a
print(type(a))
Example 2: python sets
# You can't create a set like this in Python
my_set = {} # ---- This is a Dictionary/Hashmap
# To create a empty set you have to use the built in method:
my_set = set() # Correct!
set_example = {1,3,2,5,3,6}
print(set_example)
# OUTPUT
# {1,3,2,5,6} ---- Sets do not contain duplicates and are unordered
Example 3: sets in python
The simplest way to create set is:
1. from list
code:
s = [1,2,3]
set = set(s)
print(set)
2. s,add() method
code:
set.add(1)
set.add(2)
set.remove(2)
print(set) // 1
3. Set conatins unique elements
