Remove elements larger than a specific value from a list in Python

By Paras Saini

In this post, I’ll explain to you how you can remove elements larger than a specific value from a list in Python.

Removing elements larger than a specific value from a list

To perform this task we can do it using for loop.

We can iterate through the list and then we’ll check the list elements with a value let’s suppose we have to remove the values larger than 5 then we’ll check each value of the list if the value is greater than 5 we’ll remove it otherwise we’ll not remove it.

After iterating through the whole list and removing all elements greater than a value we’ll get the result.

# Python program to remove elements from the list whose values is greater than 5 or you can use any other value in place of 5
list = [1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 13, 45]
# now using loop
x = []  #empty list to store values less than 5
for i in list:
    if i <= 5:
        x.append(i) #append values in new list x

print(x) #print the list which contains values less than 5

Output:-

[1, 3, 4]
