<p>Well I had the same idea, sorting and emptying the set, to minimize loop rounds. I like this for not creating an extra list (I used sorted()) and the while , pop() are more clear. Why not use str.endswith() in the conditional?</p>

<p>Just didn't think about using str.endswith(), you're right - it'd be better solution. Thanks for review :)</p>
