Remove list element without mutation

Question

Assume you have a list

>>> m = [\'a\',\'b\',\'c\']

I\'d like to make a new list n that has everything except for a given

Answer 1

You can create a new list without the offending element with a list-comprehension. This will preserve the value of the original list.

l = ['a', 'b', 'c']
[s for s in l if s != 'a']
