PWP Practical 8

The document provides guidelines for writing Python programs to perform operations on sets. It includes instructions on formatting practical write-ups and 4 examples of programs to: 1) create a set, add and remove elements, 2) perform intersection, union, difference and symmetric difference on sets, 3) find the maximum and minimum of sets, and 4) find the length of a set.

Practical No.

GUIDELINES FOR WRITING THE PRACTICAL WRITEUP

1. Use ruled file pages for write-up of practical contents.


2. You can use both side ruled pages for the same.
3. Start each practical (experiment) write-up on new page.
4. Maintain all these practical work in a file as it will be considered for
TW (continuous assessment) of the course PWP.
5. Write question answers given and take print out of only programs or
can write it on assignment pages.
6. Complete the practical write-up in time. Don’t keep it pending.

Practical No. 8: Write Python program to perform following operations on Set:


Create Set, Access set elements, Update set, Delete set

1. Write the various methods of set.

Ans:
Function Description

add() Adds an element to a set

Removes an element from a set. If the element


remove() is not present in the set, raise a KeyError

clear() Removes all elements form a set

copy() Returns a shallow copy of a set

Removes and returns an arbitrary set element.


pop() Raise KeyError if the set is empty
Practical No. 8

update() Updates a set with the union of itself and others

union() Returns the union of sets in a new set

Returns the difference of two or more sets as a


difference() new set

Removes all elements of another set from this


difference_update() set

Removes an element from set if it is a member.


discard() (Do nothing if the element is not in set)

Returns the intersection of two sets as a new


intersection() set

Updates the set with the intersection of itself


intersection_update() and another

isdisjoint() Returns True if two sets have a null intersection

issubset() Returns True if another set contains this set

issuperset() Returns True if this set contains another set

Returns the symmetric difference of two sets as


symmetric_difference() a new set
Practical No. 8

1. Write a python program to create a set, add members in a


set and remove one item from set
set1={1}
set1.add(3)
print("After adding 1st element ",set1)
set1.add(4)
print("After adding 2nd element ",set1)
set1.remove(4)
print("After removing random element ",set1)

Output:
>>> %Run exp8_1.py
After adding 1st element {1, 3}
After adding 2nd element {1, 3, 4}
After removing random element {1, 3}

2. Write a python program to perform following operations on


set: intersection of sets, union of sets, set difference,
symmetric difference, clear a set.
A={1,2,3,4}
B={3,4,5,6}
print("Set A is ",A)
print("Set B is ",B)
print("Intersection of sets ",A&B)
print("Union of sets ",A|B)
print("Set difference is ",A-B)
print("Symmetric difference is ",A^B)
A.clear()
B.clear()
print("Set A after clear operation ",A)
print("Set B after clear operation ",B)

Output:

>>> %Run exp8_2.py


Set A is {1, 2, 3, 4}
Set B is {3, 4, 5, 6}
Intersection of sets {3, 4}
Union of sets {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Set difference is {1, 2}
Practical No. 8

Symmetric difference is {1, 2, 5, 6}


Set A after clear operation set()
Set B after clear operation set()

3. Write a python program to find maximum and the minimum


value in a set.
A={2,3,4,6,8,1}
B={'a','r','z','c'}
print("Maximum of set A is ",max(A))
print("Maximum of set B is ",max(B))
print()
print("Minimum of set A is ",min(A))
print("Minimum of set B is ",min(B))

Output:
>>> %Run exp8_3.py
Maximum of set A is 8
Maximum of set B is z

Minimum of set A is 1
Minimum of set B is a

4. Write a python program to find the length of a set


A={2,3,4,6,8,1}
B={'a','r','z','c'}
print("Length of set A: ",len(A))
print()
print("Length of set B: ",len(B))

Output:
>>> %Run exp8_4.py
Length of set A: 6

Length of set B: 4
