Sets in Clojure are a set of unique values. Sets are created in Clojure with the help of the set command.
Following is an example of the creation of sets in Clojure.
(ns clojure.examples.example (:gen-class)) (defn example [] (println (set '(1 1 2 2)))) (example)
The above code produces the following output.
#{1,2}
