Remove dictionary from list

Question

If I have a list of dictionaries, say:

[{\'id\': 1, \'name\': \'paul\'},
 {\'id\': 2, \'name\': \'john\'}]

and I would like to remove the d

Answer 1

You can try the following:

a = [{'id': 1, 'name': 'paul'},
     {'id': 2, 'name': 'john'}]

for e in range(len(a) - 1, -1, -1):
    if a[e]['id'] == 2:
        a.pop(e)

If You can't pop from the beginning - pop from the end, it won't ruin the for loop.
