Write a program to read elements of a list. a) The program should ask for the position of the element to be deleted from the list. Write a function to delete the element at the desired position in the list. b) The program should ask for the value of the element to be deleted from the list. Write a function to delete the element of this value from the list.

Write a program to read elements of a list.

a) The program should ask for the position of the element to be deleted from the list. Write a function to delete the element at the desired position in the list.

b) The program should ask for the value of the element to be deleted from the list. Write a function to delete the element of this value from the list.

Here is a Python program to read elements into a list and then provide functionality for deleting an element by its position or by its value.

# Function to delete an element at a desired position
def delete_by_position(lst, pos):
    if 0 <= pos < len(lst):
        lst.pop(pos)
    else:
        print("Position out of range")

# Function to delete the first occurrence of an element by its value
def delete_by_value(lst, value):
    if value in lst:
        lst.remove(value)
    else:
        print("Value not found in the list")

# Main program
if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Read elements into the list
    myList = []
    n = int(input("How many elements do you want to enter in the list: "))
    for i in range(n):
        elem = input(f"Enter element {i+1}: ")
        myList.append(elem)
    
    print("\nCurrent List:", myList)
    
    # Delete by position
    pos = int(input("\nEnter the position of the element to be deleted: "))
    delete_by_position(myList, pos)
    print("List after deleting element by position:", myList)
    
    # Delete by value
    value = input("\nEnter the value of the element to be deleted: ")
    delete_by_value(myList, value)
    print("List after deleting element by value:", myList)

This program includes two functions:

1. delete_by_position(lst, pos): This function removes the element at the given position.

2. delete_by_value(lst, value): This function removes the first occurrence of the element with the given value.

The program then reads a list of elements, allows the user to delete an element by position, and delete an element by value.
