List Comprehensions 20-01-2025 - Jupyter Notebook

The document explains list comprehensions in Python, highlighting their ability to transform one list into another with conditional inclusion and transformation of elements. It emphasizes that while every list comprehension can be rewritten as a for loop, not every for loop can be converted into a list comprehension. Various examples demonstrate the syntax and usage of list, tuple, set, and dictionary comprehensions.

What are list comprehensions?


List comprehensions are a tool for transforming one list (any iterable actually) into another list.
During this transformation, elements can be conditionally included in the new list and each
element can be transformed as needed. List comprehensions in Python are great, but mastering
them can be tricky because they don’t solve a new problem: they just provide a new syntax to
solve an existing problem.

From loops to comprehensions


Every list comprehension can be rewritten as a for loop but not every for loop can be rewritten as
a list comprehension .The key to understanding when to use list comprehensions is to practice
identifying problems that smell like list comprehensions. If you can rewrite your code to look just
like this for loop, you can also rewrite it as a list comprehension:

1 # List/Dictionary Comprehension

3 We can create the list or dictionary using the short syntax based on some
range values or some othe list

5 Syntax:
6 newlist = [item for item in sequence]

8 eg.
9 nums=[]
10 for i in range(1,11):
11 nums.append(i)
12 ​
13 ​
14 nums = [i for i in range(1,11)]

In [2]: 1 li=[2,4,8,11,19,17,6]
2 li2=[i*i if i%2==0 else i**3 for i in li]

In [5]: 1 print(li2)

[4, 16, 64, 1331, 6859, 4913, 36]

In [7]: 1 for i in li:


2 if i%2==0:
3 print(i**2)
4 else:
5 print(i**3)
