From the lesson: Python Sets: Unique Collections, Operations, and Use Cases

Imagine you're a teacher taking attendance. A student accidentally signs the attendance sheet twice. Does that mean they're in class twice? Of course not. You only care about who showed up, not how many times they wrote their name.

Read the lesson

You have a list of email addresses where some appear more than once. Create a set called unique_emails from the emails list and print it sorted alphabetically using sorted().

emails = ['alice@mail.com', 'bob@mail.com', 'alice@mail.com', 'charlie@mail.com', 'bob@mail.com']
# Create a set of unique emails and print them sorted
