my list al is as below:
al=list(c(2,3),5,7)
al
[[1]]
[1] 2 3

[[2]]
[1] 5

[[3]]
[1] 7

and I check the second component, its element is 5, then I remove this, now
my al is:

al[[2]][al[[2]]!=5]->al[[2]]
al
[[1]]
[1] 2 3

[[2]]
numeric(0)

[[3]]
[1] 7

The Question is, how I can get the new list without the second component,
that is :

alwanted
[[1]]
[1] 2 3

[[2]]
[1] 7

Another way:

> al=list(c(2,3),5,7)
> al[-2]
[[1]]
[1] 2 3

[[2]]
[1] 7

> alwanted <- al[-2]

Negative indexing with the "[" operator.
