如何从我从另一个列表中删除的重复项的 SAME INDEX 上的列表中删除项目

Question

I have two lists of items, one for avatar names, and one for avatar pictures:

name_list = ['name1', 'name2', 'name2', 'name3', 'name4', 'name5', 'name5']
picture_list = ['pic1', 'pic2', 'pic3', 'pic4', 'pic5', 'pic6', 'pic7']

I need each item from the name_list to always stay on the same index it shares with the item in the picture_list. So that when I remove the duplicates from the name_list, the items in the picture_list will be removed accordingly. So that the result is:

name_list = ['name1', 'name2', 'name3', 'name4', 'name5']
picture_list = ['pic1', 'pic2', 'pic4', 'pic5', 'pic6']

(It's important to mention that the numbers of the picture and the name don't have to be the same. only that they'll stay on the same index they shared before)

How may I do so in code?

Answer 1

You might consider using nested lists. Consider the following:

item_lists = [
    ['name1', 'pic1'],
    ['name2', 'pic2'],
    # etc.
]

del item_lists[1]

This way you always keep the name and pictures together, and delete them simultaneously.
