Hello,

I try to remove a dictionary key-pair (remove an entry),
but I'm unsuccessful. Does anyone know how to achieve this?

Thanks

>>> d = {1:2, 3:4}
>>> d
{1: 2, 3: 4}
>>> del d[1]
>>> d
{3: 4}

Bye,

Assuming you know the key:

d = {"foo":1,"bar":2}
print d
del(d["foo"])
print d

d = dict(a=1, b=2, c=3)

print d

del d['a']

print d

>>> d = {1: "one", 2: "two", 3: "three"}
>>> del d[2]
>>> d
{1: 'one', 3: 'three'}
