Hello André,

That's not a list, it's a vector
> s <- sample(list,1)

If all values are unique as in your example, this will work
x <- 1:5
s <- sample(x, 1)
x <- x[ x != s ]
The last step could also be...
x <- x[ -match(s, x) ] # note minus sign
Lots of other was to do it too.
Note, I'm assuming you won't always have values equal to the element indices.
