I don't understand. A list comprehension is for when you know you're going to want to work with the whole list. Similarly (even more so) for dictionary comprehensions. List comprehension can be defined in terms of a genexp, of course, but ISTM it's a worthwhile addition to the language in its own right. _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
