17.11 Supersets and Subsets

Supersets and Subsets

A superset is a set that contains all elements that are in a given set. For example, here a is a superset of b:
a = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} b = {0, 3} print(a.issuperset(b)) # prints True
A subset, on the other hand, is a set that is part of a given set. In the previous example, b is a subset of a:
a = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} b = {0, 3} print(b.issubset(a)) # prints True
