Python: Remove a specified dictionary from a given list
Python dictionary: Exercise-48 with Solution
Write a Python program to remove a specified dictionary from a given list.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
def remove_dictionary(colors, r_id):
colors[:] = [d for d in colors if d.get('id') != r_id]
return colors
colors = [{"id" : "#FF0000", "color" : "Red"},
{"id" : "#800000", "color" : "Maroon"},
{"id" : "#FFFF00", "color" : "Yellow"},
{"id" : "#808000", "color" : "Olive"}]
print('Original list of dictionary:')
print(colors)
r_id = "#FF0000"
print("\nRemove id",r_id,"from the said list of dictionary:")
print(remove_dictionary(colors, r_id))
Sample Output:
Original list of dictionary: [{'id': '#FF0000', 'color': 'Red'}, {'id': '#800000', 'color': 'Maroon'}, {'id': '#FFFF00', 'color': 'Yellow'}, {'id': '#808000', 'color': 'Olive'}] Remove id #FF0000 from the said list of dictionary: [{'id': '#800000', 'color': 'Maroon'}, {'id': '#FFFF00', 'color': 'Yellow'}, {'id': '#808000', 'color': 'Olive'}]
