SET OPREATIONS
APPLICATION OF SET IN PYTHON
CONCLUSION
PYTHON
 Python language was created by “Guido van Rossum” in 1991.
 The name python was came from a TV show named “Monty Python’s Flying Circus”.
 Python is high level interpreted general purpose programming language, derived from ABC
PROGRAMMING LAUNGUAGE.
 It is object oriented programming language.
 It is easy to learn.
INTRODUCTION TO SET:-
• A Set is an unordered collection of unique element.
• Duplicate values are not allowed.
• Defined using { } curly brackets.

•Example:
myset ={1, 2,3,4}
CHARACTERISTICS OF SET
Unordered (no indexing)
Only unique elements
Mutable (can be modified)
Can store heterogeneous data types (int,str,float,etc.)
CREATING A SET
Methods:
1. Using curly braces{ }
S = {1,2,3}

2. Using set() function


S = set([1,2,2,3])
ACCESSING ELEMENTS IN A SET
Indexing is not possible.
Elements can be accessed using a loop:
For I in myset:
Print(I)
AddING AND REMOVING ELEMENTS
Add element: [Link](x)
Remove element: [Link](x) or [Link](x)
Clear all elements: [Link]()
SET OPERATIONS
Union (| or union() )
Intersection (& or intersection() )
Difference (- or difference() )
Symmetric Difference (^ or symmetric_difference() )
EXAMPLES OF SET OPERATIONS
A={1,2,3,4}
B={3,4,5,6}

Print(A|B) # Union
Print(A&B) # Intersection
Print(A-B) # Difference
Set union
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
B = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
# use | operator
# output: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
print(A | B)

# use union function # use union function


[Link](B) [Link](A)
{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
Set intersection
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
B = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
# use & operator
# output: {4, 5}
print(A & B)
A. intersection(B)
# {4, 5}
Set difference
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
B = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
# use – operator on A
# output: {1, 2, 3}
print(A – B)
# use difference function on A
[Link](B) # use – operator on B
#{1, 2, 3} B–A
# {8, 6, 7}
Set symmetric difference
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
B = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
# use ^ operator
# Output: {1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8}
print(A ^ B)

# use symmetric difference function on A


[Link] difference(B)
# {1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8}
APPLICATIONS OF SET IN PYTHON
Removing duplicate values
Membership texting
Solving mathematical problems
Used in data science and machine learning
CONCLUSION
Set is a powerful data structure.
Best for fast searching, duplicate removal and set orerations.
Very useful in data handling and programming.
