Working with lists, sets, and dictionaries is a common task in Python programming. Often, we may need to remove all the elements from a list, set, or dictionary for various reasons. Python provides a simple and efficient way to clear all the elements from these data structures using the clear()
method. In this article, we will discuss how to use the clear()
method to remove all elements from a list, set, or dictionary.

If you want to delete every other element in a list in Python, you can do that fairly quickly.
Let us assume that we want to delete elements that are in positions 0, 2, 4, 6, meaning that we are starting from index 0 and we are adding 2 for every next element that we are deleting.
Continue readingThere can be cases where you do not want to remove just one element from a list, but many elements in one step.
In this case, the remove()
method does not help us since it simply removes the first instance that it finds.
Let us take a list as an example:
my_list = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g"]Continue reading
One of the things that you can do with lists is deleted elements that are already there.
Lists are mutable so you can add, edit, or delete elements from them.
Let us see how we can delete one element from a list.
Let us say that we have the following list:
my_list = ["a", "b", "c", "d"]Continue reading
Lists represent one of the most used data structures in any Python script. One of the reasons why I like programming in Python is that I get to reach a result quite quickly.
One such thing is the opportunity to easily and quite simply access their elements quite flexibly.
With flexibility, I mean, having the opportunity to choose only the elements that we want.
Continue readingWe are often not very keen to do our job, to perform our best and to finish off our to-do list because we do not feel motivated and think that we will do better other times when a moment of inspiration comes. This continues on a consistent basis and then becomes a habit, something that you feel better to do than to not do it. If you want to escape this dangerous trap that might spread into other areas of your life as well, you need to do something about motivation. You might even consider removing motivation from the equation of action at all. Continue reading
