Modifying an XML File in python

Question

i have a little problem and i don't know how to fix it. In the output.xml file must be just parametrs(Variables,Records,Arrays) that i'm looking for, but in the end is output.xml file the same like master.xml file...why? we are looking for index= "1018"...index4120 in decimal please don't past me a link like this : https://docs.python.org/2/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html becouse i go trough 3000x times

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET

tree = ET.parse('master.xml')
root = tree.getroot()

variables = root.iter('Variable')
records = root.iter('Record')
arrays = root.iter('Array')
s = input('insert a hex number of index and add (") befor and after number: ')
i = int(s, 16)


for node in variables:
    if node.find('./Index').text == str(i):
        print 'name of variable: ', node.attrib['name']
    elif node.find('./Index').text != str(i):
        root.remove(variables)
for node in records:
    if node.find('./Index').text == str(i):
        print 'name of record: ', node.attrib['name']
    elif node.find('./Index').text != str(i):
        root.remove(records)
for node in arrays:
    if node.find('./Index').text == str(i):
        print 'name of array: ', node.attrib['name']
    elif node.find('./Index').text != str(i):
        root.remove(arrays)

tree.write('output.xml')
