Using the update() Method: Merging Multiple Elements into a Set

The update() method in Python allows you to add multiple elements to a set at once. This method takes an iterable (like a list, tuple, or another set) and adds its elements to the existing set.

The update() method can accept:

  • Lists: [movie1, movie2, ...];
  • Tuples: (movie1, movie2, ...);
  • Other Sets: {movie1, movie2, ...}.

              
12345678

            
# Original set of favorite movies
favorite_movies = {"Inception", "Interstellar", "Tenet"}

# Adding multiple new movies
favorite_movies.update(["Tenet", "Memento", "The Prestige"])

# Print the updated set
print(favorite_movies)
copy

Note

If any element being added already exists in the set, it will not be duplicated. The order of elements in a set is not guaranteed and may vary.

Tehtävä

Swipe to start coding

You are given the set marvel_movies and the tuple movies_to_add.

  • Add both movies from the tuple to the set.
  • Use the update() method to accomplish this.
