We’re also able to remove items from a list.

Similar to adding items, we can modify lists by taking off the last item, or we can use indexing to select a specific item and remove it from the list.

myList = ['apple', 'banana', 'pear']

myList.pop() // returns 'pear'

// now, myList == ['apple', 'banana']

This line of code will take away the last item from our list, keeping our sequence intact. But we can also remove items from the middle of our list:

myList = ['apple', 'banana', 'pear']

myList.splice(1, 1) // returns 'banana'

// now, myList == ['apple', 'pear']

Instructions

After looking at your comic strip, you decide that you want the ending to be a cliffhanger. Take off the last frame from the comic.
