Is there a simple way to delete a list element by value?

Question

I want to remove a value from a list if it exists in the list (which it may not).

a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
b = a.index(6)

del a[b]
print(a)

Say for example, we want to remove all 1's from x. This is how I would go about it:

x = [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3]

Now, this is a practical use of my method:

def Function(List, Unwanted):
    [List.remove(Unwanted) for Item in range(List.count(Unwanted))]
    return List
x = Function(x, 1)
print(x)

And this is my method in a single line:

[x.remove(1) for Item in range(x.count(1))]
print(x)

Both yield this as an output:

[2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 3]

Hope this helps. PS, pleas note that this was written in version 3.6.2, so you might need to adjust it for older versions.
