You can easily find the unique elements in an array in python when you union the two arrays. It allows you to remove any duplication of the array. In this post you will know how to find the union of array in python using steps.
Lets know all the steps to find the union of arrays in python.
The first step is to create a sample arrays that will used for implementing union on the arrays. Here I have created only two arrays. Use the below line of code to create an array.
array1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
array2 = [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]Now the next step is to create set for each of the array. It is done because union operation is done on set only. You can convert the array to set using the set() function.
Add the below lines of code to convert these two arrays to set.
set1 = set(array1)
set2 = set(array2)After converting the array to set you can use the ” | ” to find the union of the two arrays. After that you will also convert the result to the list using the list() function.
Use the below line of code to achieve the above step.
union_list = list(union_set)Now the last step is to display the result. Obviously to do that you will call the print() function.
print(union_array)Below is the full code for the above steps.
array1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
array2 = [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
set1 = set(array1)
set2 = set(array2)
union_set = set1 | set2
union_list = list(union_set)
print(union_list)Output
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
In this tutorial you have learned first to convert the array to the set and then using the ” | ” union operator found the union of two array. I hope the above steps has helped you in finding the union of the two array.
