It might be faster if the list were passed directly to python rather than read
from a file, but then AS would have to process the file, so no net gain. And I
haven’t figured out how to pass an AS list to a python list.

But it does demonstrate an interesting use of sets vs lists in python. Are
there sets in ObjC?

Thanks.
