+How do you remove multiple items from a list
+--------------------------------------------
+
+As with removing duplicates, explicitly iterating in reverse with a
+delete condition is one possibility.  However, it is easier and faster
+to use slice replacement with an implicit or explicit forward iteration.
+Here are three variations.::
+
+   mylist[:] = filter(keep_function, mylist)
+   mylist[:] = (x for x in mylist if keep_condition)
+   mylist[:] = [x for x in mylist if keep_condition]
+
+If space is not an issue, the list comprehension may be fastest.
