Idiom #136 Remove all occurrences of a value from a list

Remove all occurrences of value x from list items.
This will alter the original list or return a new list, depending on which is more idiomatic.

items.RemoveAll(r => r == x);

items.removeWhere((y)=>y==x);
Enum.filter(items, fn v -> v != x end)

for i, v := range items {
	if v != x {
		items[j] = items[i]
		j++

for i, v := range items {
	if v != x {
		items[j] = items[i]
		j++
