In Python, a set
can be created from a list
using either the set
constructor or by unpacking the list into curly brackets. For example:
my_list = [1, 2, 3]
my_set = set(my_list)
or
my_list = [1, 2, 3]
my_set = {*my_list}
Are there any specific reasons or use cases where one approach is preferred over the other? What are the advantages or disadvantages of each method in terms of performance, readability, or any other relevant factors?
