    Study Notes

    Set Operations and Implementations

    • Union: Combines all elements of two sets without duplicates
    • Intersection: Returns common elements in two sets
    • Difference: Returns elements in the first set but not in the second set
    • Subset: A set containing all elements from another set (issubset() in Python)
    • HashSet (Java): Stores elements without maintaining order; fast lookups
    • TreeSet (Java): Stores elements in natural sorted order
    • LinkedHashSet (Java): Stores elements in insertion order.
    • Methods for Sets:
      • issubset(): Python method to check if a set is a subset of another set

    Key-Value Pair Storage

    • HashMap (Java): Uses a hash table for storing key-value pairs
    • Dictionary (Python): Key-value pairs
      • del: Removes a key-value pair from a Python dictionary.
    • Map Methods (Java):
      • replace(): Replaces the value of a key in a Java Map.
      • get(): Retrieves the value associated with a key.
      • put(): Adds a key-value pair or replaces the value.

    Heap Data Structures

    • Min Heap: Parent nodes are smaller than or equal to child nodes

    • Max Heap: Parent nodes are larger than or equal to child nodes

    • PriorityQueue (Java): Implements a priority queue; offer() enqueues, poll() dequeues the head.

    • Heap Methods (Java):

      • poll(): Removes and returns the head of the queue (lowest priority in a min-heap).
      • peek(): Retrieves the head without removing it.

    • PriorityQueue (Python): Use the queue library and the put() method to add. get() dequeues.

    • Heap Initialization (Java): new PriorityQueue() to create an empty priority queue.

    • PriorityQueue (Python): Use the heapq library to use a heap-based priority queue.

    Other Data Structures

    • Set Initialization (Python): {"a", "b", "c"} initializes a set with the given values.
    • Sorted Order in Java: TreeSet ensures elements are stored in natural sorted order.
    • Insertion Order in Java: LinkedHashMap maintains insertion order. HashMaps do not.
    • Retrieving Keys (Java Map): keySet() retrieves all keys.
    • Removing (Del key name): del is used to delete items in dictionaries and lists in Python.
