# The pop function, without an input, defaults to removing # and returning the last item in a list. myList = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] myList.pop() print(myList) # You can also do this without returning the last item, but it is # much more complicated. myList = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] myList.remove(myList[len(myList)-1]) print(myList)
Here is what the above code is Doing:
1. We create a list called myList.
2. We use the pop function to remove the last item in myList.
3. We print myList to see what it looks like.
4. We create a list called myList.
5. We use the remove function to remove the last item in myList.
6. We print myList to see what it looks like.
