I want to delete items one by one from a List.

I could also clear the whole List by using the clear() method but I don't want that.

If someone has a solution to this problem please point it out.

Thank you.

void main(){
 
  List<String> list =['first','second','3rd','4th','5th'];

  list.removeAt(0);
  list.removeAt(1);
  list.removeAt(2);
  list.removeAt(3);
  list.removeAt(4);

  
  print(list);
//   I don't want to clear all list at once
//   I want to remove one by one element from the list
//   list.clear();
//   list.map((e){
   
//   }).toList();
}

When you remove first 3 element, you do not have 3th element anymore. You can just

  list.removeAt(0);
  list.removeAt(0);
  list.removeAt(0);
  list.removeAt(0);
  list.removeAt(0);

or

  list.removeAt(4);
  list.removeAt(3);
  list.removeAt(2);
  list.removeAt(1);
  list.removeAt(0);

When you remove first 3 elements you don't have 3th element anymore. To make it dynamic to the list length you can do it like so:

    void main() {
      List<String> list = ['first','second','3rd','4th','5th'];
      int length = list.length;
      for (int i = 0; i < length; i  ) {
        list.removeAt(0);
      }
      print(list);
    }
