hash(self)
(Hashing function)

A Set cannot be hashed.

Overrides: object.__hash__

init(self, iterable=None)
(Constructor)

Construct a set from an optional iterable.

Overrides: BaseSet.__init__

add(self, element)

Add an element to a set.

This has no effect if the element is already present.

discard(self, element)

Remove an element from a set if it is a member.

If the element is not a member, do nothing.

remove(self, element)

Remove an element from a set; it must be a member.

If the element is not a member, raise a KeyError.
