Python dictionary: pop or del

I haveing trouble understanding python dictonary

let say I have a dictornary called data that looks like this:

{ "computers": [
    {"Netbios_Name0": "apple1", "User_Domain0": "paradise", "User_Name0": "adam", "SMS_Installed_Sites0": "heaven", "Client_Version0": "5.00.9058.1018"}, 
    {"Netbios_Name0": "apple2", "User_Domain0": "paradise", "User_Name0": "lilith", "SMS_Installed_Sites0": "heaven", "Client_Version0": "5.00.9040.1044"}, 
    {"Netbios_Name0": "apple3", "User_Domain0": "paradise", "User_Name0": "eve", "SMS_Installed_Sites0": "heaven", "Client_Version0": "5.00.9068.1026"}
]}

and I want to remove apple2 so my end results looks like this:

{ "computers": [
    {"Netbios_Name0": "apple1", "User_Domain0": "paradise", "User_Name0": "adam", "SMS_Installed_Sites0": "heaven", "Client_Version0": "5.00.9058.1018"},  
    {"Netbios_Name0": "apple3", "User_Domain0": "paradise", "User_Name0": "eve", "SMS_Installed_Sites0": "heaven", "Client_Version0": "5.00.9068.1026"}
]}

I suspect I have to do something like this:

for item in data['computers']:
    if "apple2" in item['Netbios_Name0']:
        item.pop() # or del data[item]

But I can’t get it to work.

>Solution :

You can use remove():

data = { "computers": [
    {"Netbios_Name0": "apple1", "User_Domain0": "paradise", "User_Name0": "adam", "SMS_Installed_Sites0": "heaven", "Client_Version0": "5.00.9058.1018"}, 
    {"Netbios_Name0": "apple2", "User_Domain0": "paradise", "User_Name0": "lilith", "SMS_Installed_Sites0": "heaven", "Client_Version0": "5.00.9040.1044"}, 
    {"Netbios_Name0": "apple3", "User_Domain0": "paradise", "User_Name0": "eve", "SMS_Installed_Sites0": "heaven", "Client_Version0": "5.00.9068.1026"}
]}

for item in list(data['computers']):
    if 'apple2' in item['Netbios_Name0']:
        data['computers'].remove(item)
data

Output:

{'computers': [{'Netbios_Name0': 'apple1',
   'User_Domain0': 'paradise',
   'User_Name0': 'adam',
   'SMS_Installed_Sites0': 'heaven',
   'Client_Version0': '5.00.9058.1018'},
  {'Netbios_Name0': 'apple3',
   'User_Domain0': 'paradise',
   'User_Name0': 'eve',
   'SMS_Installed_Sites0': 'heaven',
   'Client_Version0': '5.00.9068.1026'}]}
