## Description
<section id='description'>
Let's practice removing items from an ES6 Set using the <code>delete</code> method.
First, create an ES6 Set:
<code>var set = new Set([1,2,3]);</code>
Now remove an item from your Set with the <code>delete</code> method.

```js
set.delete(1);
console.log([...set]) // should return [ 2, 3 ]
```

## Instructions

Now, create a set with the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5.
 Remove the values 2 and 5, and then return the set.
