Set Objects
-----------
.. sectionauthor:: Raymond D. Hettinger <python@rcn.com>
.. index::
object: set
object: frozenset
This section details the public API for :class:`set` and :class:`frozenset`
objects. Any functionality not listed below is best accessed using the either
the abstract object protocol (including :cfunc:`PyObject_CallMethod`,
:cfunc:`PyObject_RichCompareBool`, :cfunc:`PyObject_Hash`,
:cfunc:`PyObject_Repr`, :cfunc:`PyObject_IsTrue`, :cfunc:`PyObject_Print`, and
:cfunc:`PyObject_GetIter`) or the abstract number protocol (including
:cfunc:`PyNumber_And`, :cfunc:`PyNumber_Subtract`, :cfunc:`PyNumber_Or`,
:cfunc:`PyNumber_Xor`, :cfunc:`PyNumber_InPlaceAnd`,
:cfunc:`PyNumber_InPlaceSubtract`, :cfunc:`PyNumber_InPlaceOr`, and
:cfunc:`PyNumber_InPlaceXor`).
.. ctype:: PySetObject
This subtype of :ctype:`PyObject` is used to hold the internal data for both
:class:`set` and :class:`frozenset` objects. It is like a :ctype:`PyDictObject`
in that it is a fixed size for small sets (much like tuple storage) and will
point to a separate, variable sized block of memory for medium and large sized
sets (much like list storage). None of the fields of this structure should be
considered public and are subject to change. All access should be done through
the documented API rather than by manipulating the values in the structure.
.. cvar:: PyTypeObject PySet_Type
This is an instance of :ctype:`PyTypeObject` representing the Python
:class:`set` type.
.. cvar:: PyTypeObject PyFrozenSet_Type
This is an instance of :ctype:`PyTypeObject` representing the Python
:class:`frozenset` type.
The following type check macros work on pointers to any Python object. Likewise,
the constructor functions work with any iterable Python object.
.. cfunction:: int PyAnySet_Check(PyObject *p)
Return true if *p* is a :class:`set` object, a :class:`frozenset` object, or an
instance of a subtype.
.. cfunction:: int PyAnySet_CheckExact(PyObject *p)
Return true if *p* is a :class:`set` object or a :class:`frozenset` object but
not an instance of a subtype.
.. cfunction:: int PyFrozenSet_CheckExact(PyObject *p)
Return true if *p* is a :class:`frozenset` object but not an instance of a
subtype.
.. cfunction:: PyObject* PySet_New(PyObject *iterable)
Return a new :class:`set` containing objects returned by the *iterable*. The
*iterable* may be *NULL* to create a new empty set. Return the new set on
success or *NULL* on failure. Raise :exc:`TypeError` if *iterable* is not
actually iterable. The constructor is also useful for copying a set
(``c=set(s)``).
.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyFrozenSet_New(PyObject *iterable)
Return a new :class:`frozenset` containing objects returned by the *iterable*.
The *iterable* may be *NULL* to create a new empty frozenset. Return the new
set on success or *NULL* on failure. Raise :exc:`TypeError` if *iterable* is
not actually iterable.
The following functions and macros are available for instances of :class:`set`
or :class:`frozenset` or instances of their subtypes.
.. cfunction:: Py_ssize_t PySet_Size(PyObject *anyset)
.. index:: builtin: len
Return the length of a :class:`set` or :class:`frozenset` object. Equivalent to
``len(anyset)``. Raises a :exc:`PyExc_SystemError` if *anyset* is not a
:class:`set`, :class:`frozenset`, or an instance of a subtype.
.. cfunction:: Py_ssize_t PySet_GET_SIZE(PyObject *anyset)
Macro form of :cfunc:`PySet_Size` without error checking.
.. cfunction:: int PySet_Contains(PyObject *anyset, PyObject *key)
Return 1 if found, 0 if not found, and -1 if an error is encountered. Unlike
the Python :meth:`__contains__` method, this function does not automatically
convert unhashable sets into temporary frozensets. Raise a :exc:`TypeError` if
the *key* is unhashable. Raise :exc:`PyExc_SystemError` if *anyset* is not a
:class:`set`, :class:`frozenset`, or an instance of a subtype.
The following functions are available for instances of :class:`set` or its
subtypes but not for instances of :class:`frozenset` or its subtypes.
.. cfunction:: int PySet_Add(PyObject *set, PyObject *key)
Add *key* to a :class:`set` instance. Does not apply to :class:`frozenset`
instances. Return 0 on success or -1 on failure. Raise a :exc:`TypeError` if
the *key* is unhashable. Raise a :exc:`MemoryError` if there is no room to grow.
Raise a :exc:`SystemError` if *set* is an not an instance of :class:`set` or its
subtype.
.. cfunction:: int PySet_Discard(PyObject *set, PyObject *key)
Return 1 if found and removed, 0 if not found (no action taken), and -1 if an
error is encountered. Does not raise :exc:`KeyError` for missing keys. Raise a
:exc:`TypeError` if the *key* is unhashable. Unlike the Python :meth:`discard`
method, this function does not automatically convert unhashable sets into
temporary frozensets. Raise :exc:`PyExc_SystemError` if *set* is an not an
instance of :class:`set` or its subtype.
.. cfunction:: PyObject* PySet_Pop(PyObject *set)
Return a new reference to an arbitrary object in the *set*, and removes the
object from the *set*. Return *NULL* on failure. Raise :exc:`KeyError` if the
set is empty. Raise a :exc:`SystemError` if *set* is an not an instance of
:class:`set` or its subtype.
.. cfunction:: int PySet_Clear(PyObject *set)
Empty an existing set of all elements.
