Imagine that you have some data in a list that contains a lot of duplicates that you want to remove, but for simplicity$$s sake, you want to avoid writing a for loop and building a new list.

Aim

The aim of this activity is to build a set out of a random set of items. Write a function called list$\_$to$\_$set that takes a list and turns it into a set. Do not use a for loop or while loop to do so$.$

Steps for Completion

Define the function list$\_$to$\_$set to take an argument of a list $($the$\_$list$).$

Within the list$\_$to$\_$set function, use another function to convert the list into a set.

Return the set.

Snippet $6\mathrm{.}90$ shows an example of how the function list$\_$to$\_$set would work using the correct function:

the$\_$list $=[2,2,4,4,4,6,8,12,10,10]$ the$\_$set $=$ list$\_$to$\_$set$($the$\_$list$)$ print$($the$\_$set$)\{2,4,6,8,10,12\}$

Snippet $6\mathrm{.}90$

Note: The example above is only showing the logic to what the correct function used within list$\_$to$\_$set will do$.$
