Generate a set of uppercase letters


This Python code creates a set named uppercase_letters containing all the uppercase letters of the English alphabet. Here's how the code works:

  • {chr(x) for x in range(ord('A'), ord('Z')+1)}: This is a set comprehension that iterates over a range of Unicode code points corresponding to uppercase English letters.
    • chr(x): This function converts a Unicode code point x into the corresponding character.
    • for x in range(ord('A'), ord('Z')+1): It iterates over a range of code points, starting from the code point of 'A' (ord('A')) to the code point of 'Z' (ord('Z')), inclusive.
  • uppercase_letters = {...}: This part of the code initializes a variable named uppercase_letters and assigns it the set created by the set comprehension.
  • print(uppercase_letters): This line of code prints the uppercase_letters set to the console.
