You can inspect the type an object with the type() function and figure what's going on :)

You will discover that in python2.7, a={1, 2, 3} is a Set. You might be wondering "Hey, but in python2.3 there was a set data structure as well!"

Well, the syntax was slightly different: https://docs.python.org/2/library/sets.html

Therefore, in python2.7, they have added a syntactic sugar for creating sets.
