Expert Solution & Answer
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...

What to return? - For each integer value in 'indices', if it is a valid index for input array ssa', then use it to index into 'sea' and include the result in the output array. For example: Say ssa' is (23, 46, 69} and indices' is (2, -1, 0, 3, 0, 2} (where indices -1 and 3 are invalid, so only indices 2, 0, 0, 2 are used) Then the method should return (69, 23, 23, 69} Note: Order of elements in the output array corresponds to the order in which valid indices in the 'indices' array are arranged. That is, the output array may be empty if the input array sea is empty, or if the input array indices does not contain any valid indices. See the JUnit tests related to this method. */ public static int () task1(int ) seq, int () indices) { int (] result - null; return result;arrow_forwardHow can you delete elements in array?arrow_forward
