Hi,
I´ve got a list with more than 500,000 ints. Before inserting new ints,
I have to check that it doesn´t exist already in the list.
Currently, I am doing the standard:
if new_int not in long_list:
long_list.append(new_int)
but it is extremely slow... is there a faster way of doing this in python?
Thanks a lot,
Ramon Aragues
