Python Development Techdegree Graduate 13,801 Pointsindex given to .pop() is not removing correct list entry
If i put the pop index at 0 it takes the index position of 1. I don't understand why its doing this
def pop(yolist, indexx):
newnew = yolist.pop(yolist[indexx])
return yolist

Python Development Techdegree Student 4,569 PointsHi Andy! You are very close, the reason you're getting this problem is when your using yolist[indexx] it is giving you the VALUE of yolist[indexx] NOT THE ACTUAL --->INDEX NUMBER<---. You can easily fix this by replacing yolist[indexx] with just indexx.
