    Why this works? .pop() removes an element randomly. But hackrrank assumes always min element is removed.

    n = int(input())
s = set(map(int, input().split()))
N = int(input())

for _ in range(N):
    cmd = input().split()
    if cmd[0] == 'pop':
        # remove the smallest item to match HackerRank's pop behavior
        s.remove(min(s))
    elif cmd[0] == 'remove':
        s.remove(int(cmd[1]))
    elif cmd[0] == 'discard':
        s.discard(int(cmd[1]))

print(sum(s))

    Why would this not work:

    import sys

    def solution(n, values, lines, N): for i in range(N): if lines[i][0] == "d": values.discard(int(lines[i][-1])) elif lines[i][0] == "r": values.remove(int(lines[i][-1])) else: values.pop()

    return values

    if name=="main": n = int(input()) values = set(map(int, input().split())) N = int(input())

    lines = []
for _ in range(N):
    lines.append(input().strip())

result = solution(n, values, lines, N)
print(result)
