print(result)
x = set(('Python', 'Java', 'C++', 'PHP'))
print(x)

Output

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
{'C++', 'Python', 'Java', 'PHP'}

Use for loop

You can use Python for loop with set function in Python.

#use for loop to iterate over set object
for i in set(('Python', 'Java', 'C++', 'PHP')):
	print(i)

Output

PHP
Java
Python
C++
