This article demonstrates different operations on Python sets.
Examples:
Input : A = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8} B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} Output : Union : [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8] Intersection : [2, 4] Difference : [8, 0, 6] Symmetric difference : [0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 8]
In Python, below quick operands can be used for different operations.
| for union.
& for intersection.
– for difference
^ for symmetric difference
# 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)
|
Output:
('Union :', set([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8])) ('Intersection :', set([2, 4])) ('Difference :', set([8, 0, 6])) ('Symmetric difference :', set([0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 8]))
