I have a set of a few thousand primes generated from a generator:
primes = set(primegen()) = set([..., 89, 97, 101, 103, ...])
Some of those primes have a zero in them. I would like to get rid of them. Is there a way to do this all at once?
Currently I am removing elements as I loop through primes, with a regex match:
import re
zero = re.compile('.+0.+')
while primes:
p = str(primes.pop())
if zero.match(p):
continue
# do other stuff
I think this is the best way, but am curious if I'm wrong.
