You can do the following:
a = [1,2,3,4,5]
del a[0]
and
a = {1:'1', 2: '2', 3: '3', 4:'4', 5:'5'}
del a[1]
why doesn't it work the same for sets (particularly since sets are based on a
dictionary)?
a = set([1,2,3,4,5])
del a[1]
Yes I know that sets have a remove method (like lists), but since dictionaries
don't have a remove method, shouldn't sets behave like more like dictionaries
and less like lists? IMHO del for sets is quite intuitive. I guess it is too
late to change now.
