Function Details: copy_(set)

Description

Returns a shallow copy of the set.

Extended Description

The copy() method returns a new set containing a shallow copy of the original set. A shallow copy means the structure of the set is copied, but the elements are references to the same objects. Since sets can only contain hashable (immutable) elements, the shallow copy behaves effectively like a deep copy for most use cases.
