Hi
Wouldn't this only cause problems with large lists - for once off
scripts with small lists it doesn't seem like a big issue to me.

Just note that both solutions rebind the name to a newly constructed
list instead of modifying the original list in place. This is usually
the RightThing(tm), but sometimes one wants an in-place modification.

Hi,
Is there a better way to replace/remove characters (specifically ' and
" characters in my case, but it could be anything) in strings in a
list, than this example to replace 'a' with 'b':
x = ["a","123a","as"]
for i, v in enumerate(x) :
x[i] = v.replace("a","b")
This works, bu
