      Copy Sets

      Python Tutorial

      This Python tutorial has been written for the beginners to help them understand the basic to advanced concepts of Python Programming Language. After completing this tutorial, you will find yourself at a great level of expertise in Python, from where you can take yourself to the next levels to become a world class Software Engineer.

      Copy Sets

      The copy() method in set class creates a shallow copy of a set object.

      Syntax

      set.copy()

      Return Value

      The copy() method returns a new set which is a shallow copy of existing set.

      Example

      lang1 = {"C", "C++", "Java", "Python"}
      print ("lang1: ", lang1, "id(lang1): ", id(lang1))
      lang2 = lang1.copy()
      print ("lang2: ", lang2, "id(lang2): ", id(lang2))
      lang1.add("PHP")
      print ("After updating lang1")
      print ("lang1: ", lang1, "id(lang1): ", id(lang1))
      print ("lang2: ", lang2, "id(lang2): ", id(lang2))

      Output

      lang1: {'Python', 'Java', 'C', 'C++'} id(lang1): 2451578196864
      lang2: {'Python', 'Java', 'C', 'C++'} id(lang2): 2451578197312
      After updating lang1
      lang1: {'Python', 'C', 'C++', 'PHP', 'Java'} id(lang1): 2451578196864
      lang2: {'Python', 'Java', 'C', 'C++'} id(lang2): 2451578197312
