How do I programatically change layers in Leaflet?

Question

I don't want to the show the layers control on the map, but I want to put some buttons somewhere else to change between layers. Is this possible to change the layer programmatically?

Accepted Answer

Suppose you have a `map`:

```
var map = L.map('worldmap-map').setView([37.8, -96], 4);
```

To remove a layer, `layer1`:

```
map.removeLayer(layer1)
```

To remove a control layer, `ctrlLayer`,

```
map.removeControl(ctrlLayer)
```

Or you want to add a `layer1` to `map`:

```
layer1.addTo(map)
```

For an example, there is a `Leaflet` example : http://leafletjs.com/examples/choropleth-example.html

You could use firebug or chrome dev tools to see its source.
