To remove more than one item from a list, we can use various ways as discussed in this article. Let’s say have the following input List − ["David", "Jacob", "Harry", "Mark", "Anthony", "Steve", "Chris"] Following is the output when multiple elements “David” and “Harry” are removed − ["Jacob", "Mark", "Anthony", "Steve", "Chris"] Remove multiple items from a List Example To remove multiple items from a List, use the del keyword. The del allows you to add the items you want to delete in a range using square brackets: # Creating a List mylist = ["David", "Jacob", "Harry", "Mark", ... Read More

To remove duplicates from a List in Python, we can use various ways as discussed in this article. Remove duplicates from a list using Dictionary Example In this example, we will remove duplicates from a list using OrderedDict − from collections import OrderedDict # Creating a List with duplicate items mylist = ["Jacob", "Harry", "Mark", "Anthony", "Harry", "Anthony"] # Displaying the List print("List = ", mylist) # Remove duplicates from a list using dictionary resList = OrderedDict.fromkeys(mylist) # Display the List after removing duplicates print("Updated List = ", list(resList)) Output List = ['Jacob', 'Harry', ...

Python Sequences includes Strings, Lists, Tuples, etc. We can merge elements of a Python sequence using different ways. Let’s see some examples of iteration over a List in reverse order. Iterate in Reverse Order using while loop Example In this example, we have a List as a sequence and iterate it in reverse order using the while loop − # Creating a List mylist = ["Jacob", "Harry", "Mark", "Anthony"] # Displaying the List print("List = ", mylist) # Length - 1 i = len(mylist) - 1 # Iterate in reverse order print("Display the List in Reverse order ...

Negative Indexing is used to in Python to begin slicing from the end of the string i.e. the last. Slicing in Python gets a sub-string from a string. The slicing range is set as parameters i.e. start, stop, and step. Syntax Let us see the syntax − #slicing from index start to index stop-1 arr[start:stop] # slicing from index start to the end arr[start:] # slicing from the beginning to index stop - 1 arr[:stop] # slicing from the index start to index stop, by skipping step arr[start:stop:step] If the values above are in negative, that ...

First, we will see how to convert Tuple into a List in Python. Convert Tuple with Integer Elements into a List To convert Tuple to a List, use the list() method and set the Tuple to be converted as a parameter. Example Let’s see the example # Creating a Tuple mytuple = (20, 40, 60, 80, 100) # Displaying the Tuple print("Tuple = ", mytuple) # Length of the Tuple print("Tuple Length= ", len(mytuple)) # Tuple to list mylist = list(mytuple) # print list print("List = ", mylist) print("Type = ", type(mylist)) Output Tuple = ...

To read or write a binary file, at first you need to understand the different file modes for Binary Files in Python − Mode Description rb Opens a file for reading only in binary format. The file pointer is placed at the beginning of the file. This is the default mode. rb+ Opens a file for both reading and writing in binary format. The file pointer placed at the beginning of the file. wb Opens a file for writing only in binary format. Overwrites the file if the file exists. If the ... Read More

In this article, we will learn the new features in Python 3.10, compared to 3.9. Let’s see the features − Parenthesized context managers Using enclosing parentheses for continuation across multiple lines in context managers is now supported. This allows formatting a long collection of context managers in multiple lines in a similar way as it was previously possible with import statements User-Defined Type Guards TypeGuard has been added to the typing module to annotate type guard functions and improve information provided to static type checkers during type narrowing. Enhanced error messages If you will get an error while running a ... Read More

To delete a file, use the remove() method in Python. Pass the name of the file to be deleted as an argument. Let us first create a file and read the content: We will display the contents of a text file. For that, let us first create a text file amit.txt with the following content − The file amit.txt is visible in the Project Directory − Display the contents of a text file Let us now read the contents of the above file # The file to be read with open("amit.txt", "r") as myfile: my_data ...

Functional programming languages are specially designed to handle symbolic computation and list processing applications. Functional programming is based on mathematical functions. Some of the popular functional programming languages include: Lisp, Python, Erlang, Haskell, Clojure, etc. Characteristics of Functional Programming The most prominent characteristics of functional programming are as follows − Functional programming languages are designed on the concept of mathematical functions that use conditional expressions and recursion to perform computation. Functional programming supports higher-order functions and lazy evaluation features. Like OOP, functional programming languages support popular concepts such as Abstraction, Encapsulation, Inheritance, and Polymorphism. Advantages of Functional Programming ... Read More

Slicing in Python gets a sub-string from a string. The slicing range is set as parameters i.e. start, stop and step. For slicing, the 1st index is 0. For negative indexing, to display the 1st element to last element in steps of 1 in reverse order, we use the [::-1]. The [::-1] reverses the order. In a similar way, we can slice strings like this. # slicing from index start to index stop-1 arr[start:stop] # slicing from index start to the end arr[start:] # slicing from the beginning to index stop - 1 arr[:stop] # slicing from ...
