Python set issuperset(): Superset and >= Examples

A.issuperset(B) returns True when every element of B is present in A. The method can test another iterable; for set-to-set comparisons you can also use A >= B.

For the reverse relationship, use issubset(). To test for no shared elements, use isdisjoint().

Set order: sets are unordered. Whenever an example prints a set, the displayed element order can differ between runs or Python environments.

A={'x','y','z','a','b','c'}
B={'x','y','z'}
print(A.issuperset(B))

Output ( All elements of B is present in inside A )

True

A={'x','y','z','a','b','c'}
B={'x','y','z','k','l','m'}
print(A.issuperset(B))

Output ( There are elements in B which are not in A )

False

Using a String

String is an iterable objects

A={'y','t','W','o','e'}
B='We'
print(A.issuperset(B))

Output ( here all elements of B is present in A )

True

Using a List

List is an iterable objects

A={'x','y','a','b'}
B=['a','b']
print(A.issuperset(B))

Output ( all elements of B is present inside A )

True
