How do I compare different collections in Python?

In Python, you can compare collections like lists, tuples, sets, and dictionaries using various methods. What specific collections are you interested in comparing?

I want to compare lists and sets. What are the main differences?

Lists are ordered and allow duplicates, while sets are unordered and do not allow duplicates. Would you like examples of how to use them?

Yes, please provide examples for both.

Sure! For lists, you can create one like this: my_list = [1, 2, 2, 3]. For sets: my_set = {1, 2, 3}. You can see that the set automatically removes duplicates.

What about performance differences when using them?

Sets generally have faster membership tests compared to lists because they use a hash table. Lists require a linear search.
