I find myself often iterating a list looking to remove the undesireable elements. I want to do this:
for f in filenames: if not f.endswith('.png') f.delete() But I find myself having to do this: for i in range(len(filenames)):: if not filenames[i].endswith(".png"): del filenames[i] I'm wondering if there is a way to do the first option? I suppose I"m trying to delete what I'm examining at the same time which maybe is why it's problematic.
