Introduction to UNION in Python

In Python, a "union" typically refers to a set operation that combines multiple sets or sequences to create a new one containing all unique elements. The primary data structure for this operation is the "set" data type. Here's how you can perform a union operation in Python:

Using Sets:

You can use the built-in set data type to perform a union operation. Sets automatically remove duplicate elements.

Using the | Operator:

You can use the | operator to perform a union operation between two sets.

Using Lists or Sequences:

If you want to perform a union on lists or sequences, you can convert them to sets, perform the union, and then convert the result back to a list if needed.

These methods allow you to combine two or more collections while eliminating duplicates, making the resulting collection contain only unique elements.
