title: AND/OR in Python?
body: <p>I know that the <code>and</code> and <code>or</code> expressions exist in python, but is there any <code>and/or</code> expression? Or some way to combine them in order to produce the same effect as a <code>and/or</code> expression?</p>
  
  <p>my code looks something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>if input=="a":        
      if "a" or "á" or "à" or "ã" or "â" in someList:            
          someList.remove("a") or someList.remove("á") or someList.remove("à") or someList.remove("ã") or someList.remove("â")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>with this, I mean that if the user inputs "a" and any type of "a" is included in a previously defined list, can I have all the types of "a" removed from a given list?</p>
  
  <p>python tells me that there is a problem in:</p>
  
  <pre><code>someList.remove("a") or someList.remove("á") or someList.remove("à") or someList.remove("ã") or someList.remove("â")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>he tells me: <code>ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list</code></p>
