Remove empty strings from a list of strings

Question

I want to remove all empty strings from a list of strings in python.

My idea looks like this:

while \'\' in str_list:
    str_list.remove(\'\')
         


        

Answer 1

Keep in mind that if you want to keep the white spaces within a string, you may remove them unintentionally using some approaches. If you have this list

['hello world', ' ', '', 'hello'] what you may want ['hello world','hello']

first trim the list to convert any type of white space to empty string:

space_to_empty = [x.strip() for x in _text_list]

then remove empty string from them list

space_clean_list = [x for x in space_to_empty if x]
