Hi there,
I'd like to know if there is a way to add and else condition into a
list comprehension. I'm sure that I read somewhere an easy way to do
it, but I forgot it and now I can't find it...
for example:
z=[i+2 for i in range(10) if i%2==0]
what if I want i to be "i-2" if i%2 is not equal to 0?
Hmm:
z = [newval(i) for i in range(10)] using:
def newval(x):
if x % 2:
return x - 2
else:
return x + 2
Just some more mental twiddling relating to the thread on statement
local namespaces.
I presume the point of this is to avoid polluting the local namespace
with "newval". I further presume you also have plans to do something
about "i"? ;-)

Steve
