Let A={1,2,3,4}A = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} and B={3,4,5,6}B = \{3, 4, 5, 6\}. Write A∪BA \cup B.

Write elements separated by commas. Order and repeats don’t matter — just like in a set!

With the same A={1,2,3,4}A = \{1, 2, 3, 4\} and B={3,4,5,6}B = \{3, 4, 5, 6\}, write A∩BA \cap B.

Write a Python function is_subset(a, b) that returns True exactly when every element of the set a is an element of the set b. Don't use Python's built-in <= or issubset — loop over the elements instead.
