e.g. index 0 and -2 to 1

@piac Hey Mate, can u guide me on how to select, replace items in my script?

Hi @jia.yeap,

# example list
list1 = [20, 10, 5, 7.5, 12]

# replace item by index
list1[3] = 8  # [20, 10, 5, 8, 12]

# delete by index
del list1[2]  # [20, 10, 8, 12]

# shift list by 1:
list2 = list1[1:]  # [10, 8, 12]

# or delete the first
del list1[0]

But your ghpython input hints need to be set to “List Access” in order for this to work.

Great input. This works if your list is if you set yr hint. The issue I am encountering is I had performed mathematical equations inside the script and I need to remove first value and last in ‘a’

Hi @jia.yeap,
You just need to add one list iteration to your script.
Check the attached file.
