Hello. What I want to do is delete every dictionary key/value
of the name 'Favicon' regardless of depth in subdicts, of which
there are many. What is the best way to do it?
Something like this should work:
def delkey(d, key):
if isinstance(d, dict):
if key in d: del d[key]
for val in d.values():
delkey(val, key)
Unless you have something hatefully recursive like
d = {}
d["hello"] = d
:-)
True -- didn't think of that..!
I guess then adding a check 'if val is not d: delkey(val, key)'
would take care of it?
