Intermediate Python : Exercise 6.2 (SETS)

Question

I ran the code in repl.it it works.

Cannot get the same result in the exercise.

This is about using the & operator to find the intersection of 2 sets.

Answer 1

without having seen your code, we can only guess what the issue is.

Answer 2

shriram gharpure ,

the output should be a *string*. unfortunately sololearn has removed the descriptions for input and output data in this exercise.

the output of an operation with the "intersect operator" "&" is a set, so the output is:

{'HTML'}

to get this to a string, we can use the *splat* operator to *unpack* the element from the set:

print(*(skills & job_skills))

we can also omit the additional pair of parenthesis in this case, but using the parenthesis is more obvious what we are going to achieve.

happy coding!

Answer 4

skills = {'Python', 'HTML', 'SQL', 'C++', 'Java', 'Scala'}
job_skills = {'HTML', 'CSS', 'JS', 'C#', 'NodeJS'}
print(skills & job_skills)
