Deleting an element from dictionary array in javascript

Question

$scope.couponMatches = {};

I have a function which adds elements to a dictionary: $scope.couponMatches[$scope.currentMatch] = { firstElemet: "a", secondElement: "b" };

Every time I call this function it adds an elemet to my dictionary

EX: -MND3sdaDFFls2s : { firstElemet: "a", secondElement: "b" } -MGHuwenSN3mndb : { firstElemet: "a", secondElement: "b" }

In firebase I save it .

I need to delete one element with an index before save it to firebase.

You have a reserved word delete specially for this case.

Lets say you want to delete property a from object obj , use:

delete obj.a
