When is del useful in python?

Question

I can\'t really think of any reason why python needs the del keyword (and most languages seem to not have a similar keyword). For instance, rather than deletin

Answer 1

The "del" command is very useful for controlling data in an array, for example:

elements = ["A", "B", "C", "D"]
# Remove first element.
del elements[:1]
print(elements)

Output:

['B', 'C', 'D']
