Generate list by simple expression
Like slicing, the first digit is the index of the first element you want to start from, the second digit is the next one of the last element you picked, we use range(1,10) = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
Python provides the possibility to simplify the code, easily put expression to the index of [], like [expression ranges condition]
example
//Code==========
L = [x * x for x in range(1, 11)]
print (L)
//Result==========
[1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100]
Generate list by complex expression
Even you can pass a function to be a expression
example
//Code==========
d = { 'Bin': 95, 'Lisa': 85, 'Bart': 59 }
def passed_filter(name, score):
if(score >= 60):
return name, score
else:
return None
passed = [passed_filter(name, score) for name, score in d.items()]
print (passed)
//Result==========
[('Bin', 95), ('Lisa', 85), None]
Generate list with condition
Like where in SQL
example
//Code==========
L = [x * x for x in range(1, 11)]
print (L)
L2 = [x * x for x in range(1, 11) if x % 2 == 0]
print (L2)
//Result==========
[1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100]
[4, 16, 36, 64, 100]
Generate list with nested for loop
It is NESTED for loop of outter for loop, not separate for loops
example
//Code==========
L = [m + n for m in 'ABC' for n in '123']
print (L)
L2 = []
for m in 'ABC':
for n in '123':
L2.append(m + n)
print (L2)
//Result==========
['A1', 'A2', 'A3', 'B1', 'B2', 'B3', 'C1', 'C2', 'C3']
['A1', 'A2', 'A3', 'B1', 'B2', 'B3', 'C1', 'C2', 'C3']
