title: R removing items in a sublist from a list
body: <p>I have a list:</p>
  
  <pre><code>L &lt;- c("a","b","c","d","e")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I also have a subset of this list:</p>
  
  <pre><code>L1 &lt;- c("b","d","e")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am trying to create a new list that does not contain the subset list.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>L[L!%in%L1]
  L[L%in%!L1]
  L[L%in%-L1]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but this does not work.
  I would be grateful for your help.</p>
