Examples

Update method

Consider the following two sets:


        
        
            
                
                
                    A = {1, 2, 3}
B = {3, 4, 5}

To add all elements of set B to set A:


        
        
            
                
                
                    A.update(B)
print(A)
                
            
            {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

Note that here we are modifying set A in place.

Union method

Consider the following two sets:


        
        
            
                
                
                    A = {1, 2, 3}
B = {3, 4, 5}

To return a new set with elements from set A and set B:


        
        
            
                
                
                    A.union(B)
                
            
            {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
