get
an arbitrary element easily due to the obvious lack of .pop(). I ran
into this recently, when I had a frozenset that I knew had 1 element
(it was the difference between 2 other sets), but couldn't get to
that
element easily (get the pun?) item, = set_of_one Interesting. It depends a bit on the speed of tuple unpacking, but
presumably that is quite fast. On my system it is pretty darn good: 0.101us "for x in s: break"
0.112us "x, = s"
0.122us "for x in s: pass" So not quite as good as the for loop, but quite close. John
