That hasn't always worked:

tim@bigbox:~$ python2.5
Python 2.5.5 (r255:77872, Nov 28 2010, 16:43:48) 
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> type({1,2,3})
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    type({1,2,3})
           ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

tim@bigbox:~$ python2.6
Python 2.6.8 (unknown, Jan 26 2013, 14:35:25) 
[GCC 4.7.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> type({1,2,3})
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    type({1,2,3})
           ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

And, prior to 2.4, you had to write

  from sets import Set as set

to even get sets.
