delattr(object, name)

Removes the attribute name from object. The attribute (property, method, element) will be removed if the object supports this action. Use this method when the attribute name is stored in a variable and not known in advance.

Parameters¶

delattr() takes two parameters:

• object - the object from which the attribute name must be removed
• name - a string representing the name of the attribute to remove from object

Return Value¶

delattr() does not return any value (returns None). It only removes the attribute if the object allows it.

Examples¶

string = "Hello"
string.upper() # HELLO

delattr(string, 'upper')
string.upper() # AttributeError
