There's no way to remove an item from a sequence. #190

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

Given

YAML::Node node = YAML::Load("[1, 2, 3]");

How can you turn it into [1, 3]?

Right now

node.remove(1);

does nothing; if anything, I think it should turn the node into a map, {0: 1, 
2: 3}, to mirror what happens if you write node[10] = 10.

So maybe node.remove_at(1)? I'm not sure...

I don't know if this is the same problem or not, but it's a similar problem 
with remove so I'll add it:

    YAML::Node node;
    std::cout << node.size() << std::endl;

    //node[0] = YAML::Node();
    node[1] = YAML::Node();
    node[2] = YAML::Node();
    std::cout << node.size() << std::endl;

    node.remove(2);
    std::cout << node.size() << std::endl;

Output:
0
2
1

Un-comment the line and output:
0
3
3

Yeah, that's the same question - with the line uncommented, "node" is a 
sequence, so "remove" has no effect.
