Question

I have to create a program that will ask user to input details of a student including their ID number (which is to be saved to a global list). Then the user will be returned to the main menu where they are asked to view add or delete.

I can do the adding a student, I have done view , I have created the class etc… but I cannot get it to delete. We have to delete a student we have added by entering their ID number and then after deletion the program must confirm who it has deleted.

def removeStudent():
    std_delete = raw_input("Please enter Students ID number to remove: ")
    for std in students:
        if std.studentID == std_delete:
            print "Student ID",std_delete,"has been deleted" % std.studentID
            students.remove(std)
            break

I think you are confuse how to delete a student instance

std_delete = raw_input("Student To Delete")
for std in students:
    if std.studentID == std_delete:
        print "Student ID %d has been deleted " % std.studentID
        students.remove(std)
        break

or you may using filter function

std_delete = raw_input("Student To Delete")
students = filter(lambda x: x.studentID != std_delete, students)
