    In python frozenset is similar to set but unlike set, elements cannot be added or removed from a frozenset since they are frozen. Frozenset can be used as Dictionary keys(since keys in a Dictionary are immutable) and also as elements in another set.

      example :

      fruits = {‘apple’, ‘banana’, ‘cherry’}
      x = frozenset(fruits) #
      x[1] = “strawberry” #Attempting to modify a frozenset will result in a TypeError

      # If you need to modify the set, we need to use a regular set instead

      fruits.add(“strawberry”)

      print(fruits)

          Hi Debarpan. You can refer to my reply where I have mentioned two possible use cases of frozenset.

    Frozen set is just an immutable version of python set.
