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)

Answer 1

If you know what value to delete, here's a simple way (as simple as I can think of, anyway):

a = [0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4]
while a.count(1) > 0:
    a.remove(1)

You'll get [0, 0, 2, 3, 4]

Answer 2

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.

Answer 3

 list1=[1,2,3,3,4,5,6,1,3,4,5]
 n=int(input('enter  number'))
 while n in list1:
    list1.remove(n)
 print(list1)
