jQuery remove data attribute and add data attribute

Suppose we have data attribute id, value 76
<tr class="worksheet" data-id="76"></tr>
To remove data attribute id in  jQuery
         $('.worksheet').removeData("id");
To add data attribute id in  jQuery
       $('.worksheet').attr("data-id",""); 
  Get value:
   $('.worksheet').data("id");
 Set value
   $('.worksheet').data("id",""); 
  For some reason set value not working well, I use remove data attribute and add data attribute instead.
