Set Data Type

A Set is a collection of unique values, which can be either homogeneous or heterogeneous, and is defined using curly braces. Sets do not allow duplicate values, are unordered, and cannot be indexed or modified directly. To manage sets, built-in functions like add(), remove(), and pop() are used for adding, removing specific elements, and removing any element respectively.

Set Data Type

03 June 2025 16:04

➢ A Set is a collection of homogeneous or heterogeneous values.


• Homogeneous: A collection of the same type of values.
Example: 10, 20, 30, 40
• Heterogeneous: A collection of different types of values.
Example: 10, 2.5, 9+6j, True
➢ Set are enclosed within flower braces { }.

Q. How can we create Set?

Syntax: Variable name={value1 , value2 ,value3,…….Value n}

Note: Values inside a Tuple are separated by commas(',').

Q. What is the default value of Set?


➢ The default value of a Set is an empty parenthesis "set( )".
➢ An empty set() is considered False in a Boolean context.

Q. What types of values can we store inside a Set?


We can store values of any data type in a list, including:
• Integers
• Floats
• Complex
• Boolean

 We can't store duplicate values. If it store it will remove automatically.


➢ It will store the data Randomly . It is unorder Collection.

Example: S={12,3.4,6+4j,98,True}
S
Output:- {True, 98, 3.4, (6+4j), 12}
Example 2: we are storing mutable data inside a set
t={10,[10,20],(10,30)}
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#11>", line 1, in <module>
t={10,[10,20],(10,30)}
TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'

Example: Q={12,3.4,56+23j,True,56,1,12}

Variable space Value space

0X11

3.4
Q
56
12
0X11
True
56+23j

Note:1. It will store data randomly and in the form of hash table.
2. in case of set it is not possible to access and modifying the data because those values doesn't contain any index.

Example: d={10,20}
data types Page 1
Example: d={10,20}
d[0]
Output:-
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module>
s[0]
TypeError: 'set' object is not subscriptable

Modifying Set Elements:

➢ To add a value to a set, we use the inbuilt function add().

Syntax: variable name. add(new value)

Example: Q={True, 3.4, 56, 12, (56+23j)}


[Link]('py')
Q
Output:-{True, 3.4, 56, 'py', 12, (56+23j)}

➢ To remove a specific value from a set, we use the inbuilt function remove().

Syntax: variable name. remove(value)


Example:-
Q={True, 3.4, 56, 'py', 12, (56+23j)}
Q. remove(3.4)
Q
Output: {True, 56, 'py', 12, (56+23j)}

➢ To remove any element (usually the first one in internal order) from a set, we use the inbuilt function pop().
Note: Sets are unordered collections, so "first" does not mean the first element you see.[it will eliminate first value]

Syntax : variable name. pop()

Example:
Q={True, 56, 'py', 12, (56+23j)}
[Link]()
Output: True
Q.
Output: {56, 'py', 12, (56+23j)}
