Removing all occurences of a character from a string.

[Sean Ross]

Thank you Justin.

How about this, then:

I have a list of lists of these strings and I want to apply replace to each
string in the list of lists.

So, say:

attr = [ ["'gill-attachment'", "'a'", "'d'", "'f'",
"'n'"],["'gill-spacing'", "'c'", "'d'", "'w'"], ["'gill-size'", "'b'",
"'n'"]]

I can do the following:
for i in xrange(0, len(attr)):
    for j in xrange(0,len(attr[i])):
         attr[i][j] = attr[i][j].replace("'","")

to get what I want; which is:
[ ['gill-attachment', 'a', 'd', 'f', 'n'],['gill-spacing', 'c', 'd', 'w'],
['gill-size', 'b', 'n']]

Is there a nicer way to do this?
Sean
