Hiding the "Table of Contents" page from Table of Contents

Question

I'm using the memoir class, and it adds the Table of Contents page to the TOC. It is... well... pretty redundant...

Any quick way to eliminate this?

\documentclass{memoir}

\begin{document}
\frontmatter
\tableofcontents

\mainmatter
\chapter{A Chapter}
\end{document}

Demonstration of contents in contents.

@Caramdir Doesn't this question predate the one you refer to? (Implying that the other one is the duplicate). — mforbes, Mar 30 '12 at 02:02
@mforbes: The other had a MWE and both ways to solve the problem as answers, so I thought it better to keep that one. (I see that you improved lockstep's answer here.) — Caramdir, Mar 30 '12 at 02:07
@Caramdir I figured it was best to go with the earliest example. I will add a MWE if this one should be kept. — mforbes, Mar 30 '12 at 02:08
@mforbes: Doesn't really matter, but one should be closed. Since the OP of this question is more active, it might be better to close this other one. — Caramdir, Mar 30 '12 at 02:09
@ Caramdir Okay. I've suggested updates to this question and answer giving MWE's and both solutions. I would vote to close all other duplicates: 10943, [47225](http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/47225], and the latest 50031. — mforbes, Mar 30 '12 at 02:26

Use the starred command version \tableofcontents* instead of \tableofcontents. This effectively places the command in a KeepFromToc environment, providing an alternate verbose solution (see pages 151 and 158 of the memoir manual):

\documentclass{memoir}

\begin{document}
\frontmatter
\begin{KeepFromToc}        % or simply \tableofcontents* 
  \tableofcontents
\end{KeepFromToc}

\mainmatter
\chapter{A Chapter}
\end{document}

Working solution.
