Program:
/* ............... START ............... */
def power_set(input_set):
# If the input set is empty, return a set containing an empty set
if not input_set:
return [set()]
# Get the first element of the input set
first_elem = input_set[0]
# Recursively find the power set of the remaining elements
remaining_power_set = power_set(input_set[1:])
# Combine the first element with each subset in the remaining power set
combined_power_set = []
for subset in remaining_power_set:
combined_power_set.append(subset)
combined_power_set.append({first_elem} | subset)
return combined_power_set
# Test the function
input_set = {1, 2, 3}
result = power_set(input_set)
for subset in result:
print(subset)
/* ............... END ............... */
Output
set()
{3}
{2}
{2, 3}
{1}
{1, 3}
{1, 2}
{1, 2, 3}
Notes:
-
This program defines a power_set function that takes a set as input and returns a list of sets representing the power set of the input set. It uses a recursive approach to generate subsets by either including or excluding the first element of the input set in each subset.
- When you run the program with the input_set set to {1, 2, 3}, it will print all the subsets in the power set as above in output section.
