The provided code performs the following steps: 1. `a = [1,...

The provided code performs the following steps:

1. a = [1, 2, 3]

   • Creates a list a containing the elements [1, 2, 3].

2. b = [2, 3, 4]

   • Creates a list b containing the elements [2, 3, 4].

3. c = set(a) & set(b)

   • Converts the lists a and b to sets using the set() function, which eliminates any duplicates (although there are no duplicates here).
   • The & operator is the intersection operation for sets in Python, so it computes the common elements between the two sets.
   • The result of set(a) & set(b) will return the elements that are present in both a and b, which are {2, 3}.

End result:

• c will be a set containing {2, 3}, the common elements between a and b.
