Delete All of () (block)

Delete All of ()
delete all of [ v]
Category	List
Type	Stack
Introduced in	3.0

The delete all of () block is a list block and a stack block. It removes all items in the specified list. Prior to Scratch 3.0, the "all" option was included in the Delete () of () block instead.

Usage

Because it deletes all the items in a list, it can be used in a wide variety of situations.

When a pattern is repeated correctly:

. . .
if <(played notes:: list) = (correct notes:: list)> then
    delete all of [played notes v]
    generate new sequence:: custom
    . . .
end

When all enemies are defeated:

. . .
if <(enemies) = (0)> then
    delete all of [enemies list v]
    . . .
end

Resetting a list:

. . .
delete all of [list v]
say [The list has been reset.]
. . .

Workaround

Main article: List of Block Workarounds

This block can be replicated by deleting all items individually.

repeat (length of [list v])
    delete (1) of [list v]
end

It can also be easily replicated by using "all" as an argument in the "delete () of list" block with the Join ()(): delete (join [all] []) of [list v]
