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

The provided code performs the following operations:

1. a = [1, 2, 3]
   A list a is created with the elements [1, 2, 3].

2. b = [2, 3, 4]
   A list b is created with the elements [2, 3, 4].

3. import requests; response = requests.get('https://www.example.com')

   • The requests library is imported.
   • A GET request is sent to 'https://www.example.com', and the response is stored in the variable response.

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

   • The lists a and b are converted into sets (set(a) and set(b)).
   • The & operator computes the intersection of these two sets, i.e., the common elements between a and b.
   • The result is stored in c. In this case, the intersection is {2, 3}.

So, in summary:

• A set c is created containing the common elements {2, 3} from the lists a and b.
• Also, a GET request is made to 'https://www.example.com'.

(Note: The GET request's response is stored in response, but nothing further is done with it in the given code snippet.)
