Chapter 9, Problem 8TF
Explanation of Solution
Sets:
- • A python set is used to create an unordered collection of unique objects.
- • The built in “set()” function is used in python to create the sets.
- • The “set()” function can take the arguments to initialize the set.
- • If multiple copies of values are passed in the argument list, only one copy will be stored in the list.
- • The set can contain different types of data at the same time so the ordering of different types of data does not make sense.
Syntax:
In python, a set is created as follows:
setName = set(elementList)
In the above syntax,
- • The “setName” specifies the name of the set variable...

You should create a loop which will ask user if they want to insert, delete, display and exit. Then call the corresponding method based on the user's input. The loop will only stop once user entered "Exit"

Assignment 5C: Level Map Creator. There are a variety of ways that game developers store
their level layouts. One simple method is to associate level elements with certain symbols, and
then storing them in a 2D grid inside a text file. We will use our knowledge of 2D arrays to
create a very simple Level Map Creator tool.
The program should prompt the user to enter a width and height for the level. Then it should
initialize a 2D array and fill every element with the "*" symbol. Afterwards, the user should be
given the following options via a menu:
1. Clear Level
Re-initialize the 2D array and fill every element with the "*" symbol.
2. Add Platform
Prompt the user to enter a starting point and length for the
horizontal platform. Replace those elements in the 2D array with
the "=" symbol. If the length is longer than the number of columns
(or out of bounds), notify the user that this is not possible.
3. Add Item
Prompt the user to enter a column and row index. Replace that
element in the…
