Introduction to UNION in Python
In Python, a "union" typically refers to a set operation that combines multiple sets or sequences to create a new one containing all unique elements. The primary data structure for this operation is the "set" data type. Here's how you can perform a union operation in Python:
Using Sets:
You can use the built-in set data type to perform a union operation. Sets automatically remove duplicate elements.
Using the
| Operator:You can use the
| operator to perform a union operation between two sets.
Using Lists or Sequences:
If you want to perform a union on lists or sequences, you can convert them to sets, perform the union, and then convert the result back to a list if needed.
These methods allow you to combine two or more collections while eliminating duplicates, making the resulting collection contain only unique elements.
