Googling for

gives a lot of hints that describe the construct.

I've seen this construct in a script
>>> [x.capitalize() for x in ['a','b', 'c']]
['A', 'B', 'C']
I tried another myself
>>> [x+1 for x in [1,2,3]]
[2, 3, 4]

Apparently you can do
[function(x) for x in list]
I tried to find a description of this in "Library Reference" but
couldn't find it.
