🔒 Problem with timeit list remove

[frozen steeple]

I'm having a problem using timeit to benchmark list.remove. I create a list in the setup, but it can't find values in the list while running the test.

the exception is ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

meanwhile, checking in works fine

!ti

l = [0, 1, 2, 3]

0 in l

it runs multiple times

so if you only have 1 setup list, it's gonna run out

[frozen steeple]

oh, i thought the setup was per-run

[onyx tangle]

or, rather, the element is gonna disappear

[frozen steeple]

i wonder if there's a way to isolate just the remove?

!ti

l = [0, 1, 2, 3]
l.remove(0)

[frozen steeple]

i see

[onyx tangle]

i guess subtract the time of list creation from the time of the combined code?

[frozen steeple]

good enough for me 😂 thank you
