I have values from 0-300, I must only project values >50 and <200,
I can do this with both List and Array but I am forced to use a Array for this task,
what is the exact difference between the two in terms on ability?
I was able to do it with both List and Array but still confused between the use of list if you can do the same thing with an Array

I have a list a:
a={4941, 4980, 3855, 4763, 4955}
I convert into a list:
b=list(a)
b now becomes [4980, 4955, 4763, 4941, 3855]
Sorry am I missing something? Eventhough set is an unordered structure why should it change the order ? Or is it the list function that is doing this?
Sorry if this is too naive a question! Many thanks.

The set function in Python relies on the existence of a robust equality operator existing on the elements given to set.
Suppose we had a list of floating point numbers, xs, and we called set(xs). How will set compare the elements of xs? Will it check to see if two elements are within machine epsilon, or will it perform bitwise equality?
