    Main differences between a List and a Set are:

    1. Order: List collection is an ordered sequence of elements.

    A Set is just a distinct collection of elements that is

    unordered.

    2. Positional Access: When we use a List, we can specify

    where exactly we want to insert an element. In a Set there

    is no order, so we can insert element anywhere without

    worrying about order.

    3. Duplicate: In a List we can store duplicate elements. A Set

    can hold only unique elements
