In flutter or dart there can be several occasions where we need to clear or empty the list. It’s very easy to do this and this way flutter recommends as well.

numbers.clear();
print(numbers.length); // 0
print(numbers); // []

final List<Map<String, dynamic>> users = [{"id":1, "name":"Joan"}, {"id":2, "name":"Peter"}];
