CSC 208


Thursday, May 29th

Today in class we will share solutions to the exercises in Section 5.1: Sets.

I'll start things off by sharing how we can use python to help us work with sets.

Investigate!

    • (a) >>> len(range(3, 16))
    • (b) >>> len(range(3, 201))
    • (c) >>> len([2 * n + 1 for n in range(50)])
  1.   >>> A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
      >>> B = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
      >>> A | B
      {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
      >>> len(A | B)
      9
      >>> A & B
      {4, 5}
      >>> len(A & B)
      2
      
  2.   >>> A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
      >>> B = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
      >>> A | B
      {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
      >>> len(A | B)
      7
      >>> A & B
      {3, 4, 5}
      >>> len(A & B)
      3
      
  3.   >>> from math import comb as c
      >>> c(10, 2)
