However, when you really want to remove all items you instead assign a new
empty list
for item in items:
print(item)
items = []
Thanks Peter for the information. It helps to find the source of error .
What I wanted was to remove the items that was packed so that the code can
check for the next items that match the criteria and then pack those and delete
them and keep on repeating until all the items are packed. This is where I am
getting stuck.
The simplest way is to iterate over the list of items and, for each
item, if it fits the shelf, put it on the shelf, else put it into a list
of the 'unused' items.
At the end of a pass, you'll have a shelf of items and a list of the
remaining items.
