How to create a Set of Sets in R


How to create a Set of Sets in R ?

Answer

To create a Set of Sets in R, you can use lists to represent sets. You create individual sets as lists and then add them to another list.



✐ Examples

1 Creating a Set of Sets of Integers

In this example,

  1. First, we create three individual sets of integers named set1, set2, and set3. We assign the elements 1, 2, 3 to set1, 4, 5, 6 to set2, and 7, 8, 9 to set3.
  2. Next, we create a list named setOfSets and add set1, set2, and set3 to it. This nests the three sets within a single list.
  3. We then iterate over each set within setOfSets using a for loop. Within the loop, we print each individual set to the standard output.

R Program

set1 <- c(1, 2, 3)
set2 <- c(4, 5, 6)
set3 <- c(7, 8, 9)

setOfSets <- list(set1, set2, set3)

for (set in setOfSets) {
  print(set)
}

Output

Output:
[1] 1 2 3
[1] 4 5 6
[1] 7 8 9

2 Creating a Set of Sets of Strings

In this example,

  1. First, we create three individual sets of strings named setA, setB, and setC. We assign the elements "apple", "banana", "cherry" to setA, "dog", "elephant", "fox" to setB, and "grape", "honeydew", "kiwi" to setC.
  2. Next, we create a list named setOfStringSets and add setA, setB, and setC to it. This nests the three sets within a single list.
  3. We then iterate over each set within setOfStringSets using a for loop. Within the loop, we print each individual set to the standard output.

R Program

setA <- c("apple", "banana", "cherry")
setB <- c("dog", "elephant", "fox")
setC <- c("grape", "honeydew", "kiwi")

setOfStringSets <- list(setA, setB, setC)

for (set in setOfStringSets) {
  print(set)
}

Output

Output:
[1] "apple"  "banana" "cherry"
[1] "dog"      "elephant" "fox"    
[1] "grape"    "honeydew" "kiwi"
