Version 4 : (2 steps)
# step 1 : list keys of unwanted rows
sck=[] # list of single children keys in dictionary
for k in d.keys() :
if len(d[k]) < 2 :
sck.append(k)
# step 2 : delete all d rows whose key is listed in sck
while len(sck) > 0 :
del d[sck.pop()]
This works.
Is this the optimal pythonic way of doing it?
