I was trying to convert set to list like you did. But I noticd you could just use sorted() for the set ! Weird, but it works just fine ...
input()
myList = sorted(set(map(int, input().strip().split()))) print(myList[len(myList)-2])
Cool. Not weird, since sorted creates a copy during the sort, so even an immutable thing like set is granted operation.
I did a similar thing:
input() print(sorted({int(x) for x in input().split()}, reverse=True)[1])
edit (With one less call, don't reverse sort):
sorted({int(x) for x in input().split()})[-2]
print(sorted(set(l))[-2]) this works
Just myList[-2] - is shorter and still correct.
