Consider the following code:

result = {'A rabbit', 'The Scourge of Caerbannog', 'The most cruel and bad tempered rodent'}
result.remove('The most cruel and bad tempered rodent')
result.remove('The Scourge of Caerbannog')
result.add(42)

What value is stored in result?

Question

Consider the following code:

result = {'A rabbit', 'The Scourge of Caerbannog', 'The most cruel and bad tempered rodent'}
result.remove('The most cruel and bad tempered rodent')
result.remove('The Scourge of Caerbannog')
result.add(42)

What value is stored in result?

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The code starts by creating a set named result with three elements: 'A rabbit', 'The Scourge of Caerbannog', and 'The most cruel and bad tempered rodent'.
Next, it removes 'The most cruel and bad tempered rodent', leaving {'A rabbit', 'The Scourge of Caerbannog'}.
Then it removes 'The Scourge of Caerbannog', leaving {'A rabbit'}.
Finally, it calls add(42) to insert the integer 42 into the set. Sets in Python can contain elements of different types, so mixing strings and integers is allowed.
At this point, result contains {'A rabbit', 42}. Since sets do not guarantee order, the representation could appear as {42, 'A rabbit'} or {'A rabbit', 42}, depending on internal ordering. The common representation for this final state is {42, 'A rabbit'}.

Note on the provided answer options: there are no explicit answer choices listed in the input. If the expected format is a single option showing the final set, the correct representation is {42, 'A rabbit'} as described above.
