python set has code example

Example 1: 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 2: set except python

# Program to perform different set operations 
# as we do in  mathematics 
  
# sets are define 
A = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8}; 
B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; 
  
# union 
print("Union :", A | B) 
  
# intersection 
print("Intersection :", A & B) 
  
# difference 
print("Difference :", A - B) 
  
# symmetric difference 
print("Symmetric difference :", A ^ B)

Example 3: sets in python

set_of_base10_numbers = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0}
set_of_base2_numbers = {1, 0}

intersection = set_of_base10_numbers.intersection(set_of_base2_numbers)
union = set_of_base10_numbers.union(set_of_base2_numbers)

'''
intersection: {0, 1}:
	if the number is contained in both sets it becomes part of the intersection
union: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}:
	if the number exists in at lease one of the sets it becomes part of the union
