remove vs pop python code example

Example 1: pop vs popitme python

pop(key[, default]):
If key is in the dictionary, remove it and return its value, else return default. If default is not given and key is not in the dictionary, a KeyError is raised.

popitem():
Remove and return a (key, value) pair from the dictionary. Pairs are returned in LIFO order.
popitem() is useful to destructively iterate over a dictionary, as often used in set algorithms. If the dictionary is empty, calling popitem() raises a KeyError.

Changed in version 3.7: LIFO order is now guaranteed. In prior versions, popitem() would return an arbitrary key/value pair.

Example 2: del list python

>>> a=[1,2,3]
>>> a.remove(2)
>>> a
[1, 3]
>>> a=[1,2,3]
>>> del a[1]
>>> a
[1, 3]
>>> a= [1,2,3]
>>> a.pop(1)
2
>>> a
[1, 3]
>>>

Example 3: del vs remove python

A = [1,2,3,4]
del(A[1])
# A: [1,3,4]
B = {9,8,7,6}
B.remove("8")
# B: {9,7,6}
