The sets module, including sets.Set(), were first introduced in Python 2.3 and is written in Python. The built-in set object was introduced in Python 2.4 and is re-written in C for speed. Functionally, they are identical. Speed-wise, the built-in version is much faster, so unless you need to support Python 2.3, always use the built-in set type. -- Steven D'Aprano _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
