Set Objects

This section details the public API for set and frozenset objects. Any functionality not listed below is best accessed using either the abstract object protocol (including PyObject_CallMethod(), PyObject_RichCompareBool(), PyObject_Hash(), PyObject_Repr(), PyObject_IsTrue(), PyObject_Print(), and PyObject_GetIter()) or the abstract number protocol (including PyNumber_And(), PyNumber_Subtract(), PyNumber_Or(), PyNumber_Xor(), PyNumber_InPlaceAnd(), PyNumber_InPlaceSubtract(), PyNumber_InPlaceOr(), and PyNumber_InPlaceXor()).

type PySetObject

This subtype of PyObject is used to hold the internal data for both set and frozenset objects. It is like a 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 all are subject to change. All access should be done through the documented API rather than by manipulating the values in the structure.

PyTypeObject PySet_Type

Część stabilnego ABI.

This is an instance of PyTypeObject representing the Python set type.

PyTypeObject PyFrozenSet_Type

Część stabilnego ABI.

This is an instance of PyTypeObject representing the Python frozenset type.

The following type check macros work on pointers to any Python object. Likewise, the constructor functions work with any iterable Python object.

int PySet_Check(PyObject *p)

Return true if p is a set object or an instance of a subtype. This function always succeeds.

int PyFrozenSet_Check(PyObject *p)

Return true if p is a frozenset object or an instance of a subtype. This function always succeeds.

int PyAnySet_Check(PyObject *p)

Return true if p is a set object, a frozenset object, or an instance of a subtype. This function always succeeds.

int PySet_CheckExact(PyObject *p)

Return true if p is a set object but not an instance of a subtype. This function always succeeds.

Added in version 3.10.

int PyAnySet_CheckExact(PyObject *p)

Return true if p is a set object or a frozenset object but not an instance of a subtype. This function always succeeds.

int PyFrozenSet_CheckExact(PyObject *p)

Return true if p is a frozenset object but not an instance of a subtype. This function always succeeds.

PyObject *PySet_New(PyObject *iterable)

Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Część stabilnego ABI.

Return a new 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 TypeError if iterable is not actually iterable. The constructor is also useful for copying a set (c=set(s)).

PyObject *PyFrozenSet_New(PyObject *iterable)

Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Część stabilnego ABI.

Return a new 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 TypeError if iterable is not actually iterable.

The following functions and macros are available for instances of set or frozenset or instances of their subtypes.

Py_ssize_t PySet_Size(PyObject *anyset)

Część stabilnego ABI.

Return the length of a set or frozenset object. Equivalent to len(anyset). Raises a SystemError if anyset is not a set, frozenset, or an instance of a subtype.

Py_ssize_t PySet_GET_SIZE(PyObject *anyset)

Macro form of PySet_Size() without error checking.

int PySet_Contains(PyObject *anyset, PyObject *key)

Część stabilnego ABI.

Return 1 if found, 0 if not found, and -1 if an error is encountered. Unlike the Python __contains__() method, this function does not automatically convert unhashable sets into temporary frozensets. Raise a TypeError if the key is unhashable. Raise SystemError if anyset is not a set, frozenset, or an instance of a subtype.

int PySet_Add(PyObject *set, PyObject *key)

Część stabilnego ABI.

Add key to a set instance. Also works with frozenset instances (like PyTuple_SetItem() it can be used to fill in the values of brand new frozensets before they are exposed to other code). Return 0 on success or -1 on failure. Raise a TypeError if the key is unhashable. Raise a MemoryError if there is no room to grow. Raise a SystemError if set is not an instance of set or its subtype.

The following functions are available for instances of set or its subtypes but not for instances of frozenset or its subtypes.

int PySet_Discard(PyObject *set, PyObject *key)

Część stabilnego ABI.

Return 1 if found and removed, 0 if not found (no action taken), and -1 if an error is encountered. Does not raise KeyError for missing keys. Raise a TypeError if the key is unhashable. Unlike the Python discard() method, this function does not automatically convert unhashable sets into temporary frozensets. Raise SystemError if set is not an instance of set or its subtype.

PyObject *PySet_Pop(PyObject *set)

Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Część stabilnego ABI.

Return a new reference to an arbitrary object in the set, and removes the object from the set. Return NULL on failure. Raise KeyError if the set is empty. Raise a SystemError if set is not an instance of set or its subtype.

int PySet_Clear(PyObject *set)

Część stabilnego ABI.

Empty an existing set of all elements. Return 0 on success. Return -1 and raise SystemError if set is not an instance of set or its subtype.
