deleteOne
Syntax
list.deleteOne(value)
deleteOne list, value

List command; deletes a value from a linear or property list. For a property list, deleteOne also
deletes the property associated with the deleted value. If the value appears in the list more than
once,
deleteOne deletes only the first occurrence.
Attempting to delete a property has no effect.
Example
The first statement creates a list consisting of the days Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. The
second statement deletes the name Wednesday from the list.
days = ["Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Friday"]
days.deleteOne("Wednesday")

-- ["Tuesday", "Friday"].
deleteProp

list.deleteProp(item)
deleteProp list, item
Description

• For linear lists, replace item with the number identifying the list position of the item to be
deleted. The
deleteProp command for linear lists is the same as the deleteAt command. If
the number is greater than the number of items in the list, a script error occurs.
