Sets make it trivial to find the unique items in a sequence. 

->>> a_list = ['a', 'c', 'b', 'a', 'd', 'b']
+>>> a_list = ['The', 'sixth', 'sick', "sheik's", 'sixth', "sheep's", 'sick']
 >>> set(a_list)                      ①
-{'a', 'c', 'b', 'd'}
+{'sixth', 'The', "sheep's", 'sick', "sheik's"}
 >>> a_string = 'EAST IS EAST'
 >>> set(a_string)                    ②
 {'A', ' ', 'E', 'I', 'S', 'T'}
