Why not just build a new list? E.g.
newdevs = []

if not removing_dev :
newdevs.append(dev)

Removing from a list while you iterate will had quadratic performance
Anecdote:
I was doing a route-finding program for a railway
ticketing system. My replacement explained to my boss
that it couldn't be done: the problem was one of that
class of problems that has no good optimum solution.
I'm testing a series of scripts.
The scripts are testing a series of hardware devices.
The scripts are a sequence of device commands.
The scripts have sequence numbers.
I am adding exception handling to the to the 'inner
platform' that executes sequences.
I am doing this because testing of error
I can try that, but I'm not sure that it will work. The problem
is that devList is just a pointer to a list owned by someone else.
Making devList point to a new list won't work: I need to make
the parent list different. I could do this by adding an extra
level of indirection, but I think at the

Is that how lists are stored in cPython? It seems unlikely?
So-called lists in Python are stored contiguously in memory (more like
vectors in some other languages), so e.g. L[n]

That said, it may be a good future language enhancement to define a
reasonable consistent behavior for an iterator over a changing

usually delete the current item.

Hi Steven.
Looking at your code, why are you naming the value
__all__? It looks like a built-in variable?
Unless there is an automatic way to correctly get the
function list, I will probably be better off giving the lines
sequence numbers, and generating the function list from
that.
Steve.

When you say:
from module import *
Python looks in the module for a list of names called __all__, and
imports only the names in that

Try adding all the functions into a list such as;
funcList = [dev.read1, dev.read2, dev.read3]
for func in funcList:
