Summary  
This chapter covers how to check for the presence of elements in an unordered set using membership testing and how to iterate through a set with a for loop to access each element.

General domain of usage  
Managing a collection of unique items such as favorite movies.

Because sets are **unordered**, you cannot access their elements by index like you would with a list or tuple. However, you can:

- Check for the existence of an element using the `in` keyword;
- Iterate through the elements using a `for` loop.

### Verifying Membership with `in`
The `in` keyword allows you to check if a specific element exists within a set:

# Define a set of favorite movies
movies = {"Inception", "Interstellar", "Tenet", "Dunkirk", "Memento"}

# Check if specific movies are in the set
is_inception_present = "Inception" in movies  # True
is_avatar_present = "Avatar" in movies        # False

# Print results
print(is_inception_present)  # Output: True
print(is_avatar_present)     # Output: False

In this example, we use the `in` keyword to check if specific movies are present in the `movies` set and store the result as a boolean value in variables `is_inception_present` and `is_avatar_present`.

### Iterating Through a Set with a `for` Loop
You can iterate over a set using a `for` loop to process each element individually. Since sets are unordered, the iteration order is unpredictable.


# Define a set of favorite movies
movies = {"Inception", "Interstellar", "Tenet", "Dunkirk", "Memento"}

# Iterate through the set and print each movie title
print("Movie collection:")
for movie in movies:
    print(movie)

Each element in the set is accessed once during iteration.
The order of elements in the output may vary.
