Is this best way to remove multiple items from a list? Because if so I think passing a list of integers through pop would be cleaner.

This is probably the fastest way to remove N items from the end.
L = list("123456789") L
['1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9']
L[-3:] = [] L
['1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6']
Cheers, Ron
Hi Ron Wasn't looking for the n items from the end but good to know.
