4 - Python For Loops and Tuple, Set

This document covers the basics of Python, focusing on for loops, tuples, and sets. It explains how to iterate over collections, create numerical lists using the range() function, and the characteristics of tuples and sets. Additionally, it includes practice exercises to reinforce the concepts discussed.

1.4. Python for loops and Tuple, Set


• For loops
• Making Numerical Lists
• Working with Part of a List
For loop 3

Looping Through an Entire List A for loop is used for iterating over a
collection (or sequence) (that is either a list,
Collection a tuple, a dictionary, a set, or a string)

Define a for loop

Tuples
Defining a Tuple: A tuple looks just like a list
• except you use parentheses
instead of square brackets.

• except you can't change the values in a tuple once


it's defined

Overwriting a tuple
Practice
4-13
Sets
Defining a Set: A set is a collection which is unordered and
unindexed. In Python sets are written with curly brackets.

Change items: you cannot change its items.


Add: use the add() or update() methods
Sets
The Length of a Set

Note: If the item to remove does not


exist, discard() will NOT raise an error.

Remove Item

Note: Sets are unordered, so when using


the pop() method, you will not know
which item that gets removed.
Sets
• The clear() method empties the set:

Join Two Sets


• The union() method returns a new set with all items from both sets
Sets
Converting: use the set() function.
Practice
1. Create a set from a string, list and tuple.
2. How many letters and words are there in the following message?
message = ‘’’
(import this)
‘’’
