This Python code performs the following actions:
-
Create Two Lists:
a = [1, 2, 3]
: Creates a list nameda
with elements[1, 2, 3]
.b = [2, 3, 4]
: Creates a list namedb
with elements[2, 3, 4]
.
-
Convert Lists to Sets:
set(a)
converts the lista
into a set{1, 2, 3}
.set(b)
converts the listb
into a set{2, 3, 4}
.
-
Find Intersection of Sets:
- The
&
operator finds the intersection ofset(a)
andset(b)
. The result is a set containing only the elements that are present in bothset(a)
andset(b)
. - In this case, the intersection is
{2, 3}
because2
and3
are the common elements between the two sets.
- The
-
Assign Result to
c
:- The result of the intersection operation is assigned to the variable
c
.
- The result of the intersection operation is assigned to the variable
Final Output:
- The variable
c
will hold the value{2, 3}
, which represents the common elements of the two original listsa
andb
.
Purpose: This code snippet is used to find the common elements from two lists by leveraging set operations.
