difference()	Returns the difference of two or more sets as a new set [A-B]
difference_update()	Used to update the difference itself.
discard()	Used to remove an element from the set.
isdisjoint()	Returns True if two sets have no common elements.
issubset()	Returns True if a set has all elements of another set.
issuperset()	Returns True if another set has all elements of this set.
intersection()	Used to return a new set that contains intersection of two sets.
intersection_update()	Used to update the intersection itself.
pop()	Used to remove a random element from the set.
remove()	Used to remove the element of the given value.
symmetric_difference()	Used to return a new set that contains symmetric difference of two sets.[ (B−A) U (A−B)]
symmetric_difference_update()	Used to update the symmetric difference itself.
union()	Used to return a new set that contains union of two sets..
update()	Update the set with union of another set.
