Clearing a group in Python

Question

If I have a group of sprites such as:

spriteList = pygame.sprite.Group()

Is there anyway to delete all of the contents of the group?

Answer 1

Yes, simple: pygame.sprite.Group().empty() will do it.

Edit for clarification:

Since you have a reference to the Group object, call empty() on that reference, e.g.

spriteList.empty()
spriteList.add()
