I find myself often iterating a list looking to remove the

for f in filenames:

f.delete()
But I find myself having to do this:
for i in range(len(filenames))::
if not filenames[i].endswith(".png"):
del filenames[i]
I'm wondering if there is a way to do the first option? I suppose I"m
trying to delete what I'm examining at the same time which maybe is
why it's problematic.
Thanks!
