FWIW, I favor {3, 5, 7} because it's similar to the notation for dictionaries. Greg On Thu, 3 Feb 2000, Ka-Ping Yee wrote:

I think the follow is just as readable, if not more so:
>>> s = set(1, 5, 7)
Where set() is a new builtin, taking an arbitrary number of arguments and returning a new Set type.
Sure. We would certainly need a set() built-in anyway. I just thought the {1, 5, 7} syntax would be quite nice for math-and-science people, as it matches textbooks well.
