Program to check if a set is a subset of another set in Python

The program is as follows:

 

# Owner : TutorialsInhand Author : Devjeet Roy

names = {"Devjeet","Ajit","Bulbul","Shawriya"}

toppers = {"Ajit","Bulbul"}

if toppers.issubset(names):
    print("The toppers are in the 'names' list.")
else:
    print("The toppers are not in the 'names' list.")

The output of the program is as follows:

 

PS C:\Users\DEVJEET\Desktop\tutorialsInHand> python code.py
The toppers are in the 'names' list.

Few important tips about the program

1. The issubset() method in Python helps us to check if a set is a subset of another set in Python.

2. The invoking subset is subject to be tested against the superset which is passed as an argument.

3. The return type of this method is Boolean.
