removing dictionary key-pair

[JD]

Hello,

I try to remove a dictionary key-pair (remove an entry),
but I'm unsuccessful. Does anyone know how to achieve this?

Thanks

d = {1:2, 3:4}
d {1: 2, 3: 4} del d[1]
d

Assuming you know the key:

d = {"foo":1,"bar":2}
print d
del(d["foo"])
print d

d = dict(a=1, b=2, c=3)

del d['a']
