Chapter 9, Problem 9TF
Explanation of Solution
Sets:
- • 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.
- • “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.
- • Thus, the set will not store the duplicate elements in a set.
Syntax:
In python, a set is created as follows:
setName = set(elementList)
In the above syntax,
- • “setName” specifies the name of the set variable.
- • “elementList” is the initial element list to create the set...

- How can you access array elements?arrow_forwardPhyton: Program 6: Write a program that allows the user to add data from files or by hand. The user may add more data whenever they want. The print also allows the user to display the data and to print the statistics. The data is store in a list. It’s easier if you make the list global so that other functions can access it. You should have the following functions: · add_from_file() – prompts the user for a file and add the data from it. · add_by_hand() – prompts the user to enter data until user type a negative number. · print_stats() – print the stats (min, max, mean, sum). You may use the built-in functions. Handling errors such as whether the input file exist is extra credit. To print a 10-column table, you can use the code below: for i in range(len(data)): print(f"{data[i]:3}", end="") if (i+1)%10==0: print() print() Sample run: Choose an action 1) add data from a file 2) add data by hand 3) print stats 4)…arrow_forwardWhat does a Random object use for a seed value if one is not specified?arrow_forward
