How do I compare different Python collections?

What are the main differences between lists, tuples, and sets in Python?

Lists are mutable and ordered, tuples are immutable and ordered, while sets are mutable and unordered.

Can you give me an example of when to use a set instead of a list?

Use a set when you need to store unique items and perform operations like union or intersection.

How do I compare two lists to see if they are equal?

You can use the equality operator '==' to compare two lists. It returns True if they have the same elements in the same order.

What about comparing a list and a tuple?

You can compare a list and a tuple directly, but they must have the same elements in the same order to be considered equal.
