size=int(input("Enter the size of List:"))
li=[]
print("Enter Elements in list:")
for i in range(0,size):
    print((i+1),end=": ")
    li.append(int(input()))
count=0
#Print Given Elements
print("Elements in given List:")
print(li)
#counting the odd postitions and
# changing value to "a"
#so that we can remove them easily afterwards
for i in range(0,size,2):
    count=count+1
    li[i]="a"

for i in range(0,count):
    li.remove("a")

#You can also replace from line 14 to line 19 with
#li=[li[i] for i in range(1,size,2)]
#It will do the same thing
print("List after deleting odd positions:")
print(li)
