If you are having list comprehension hell, you are doing too much in list comprehensions. They are a hammer. Not everything is a nail. > I was thinking about this idea and while `this` keyword is equalevant > to `self` i have to explain myself. I use "this" as a variable in some of my code. If you make it a keyword, you will break my code. "self" is not a heyword, it is an ordinary variable. > English is not my main language, sorry for that :' ) Here is my pseudo code. > > ``` > if [i for i in range(10) if i == 11]: > print(this) You don't need a special keyword for that. Just assign it to a variable. this = [i for i in range(10) if i == 11] if this: print(this) What's wrong with this solution? You mention it at the end of your message, as if it was something to be avoided. Or in 3.8 and after: if this := [i for i in range(10) if i == 11]: print(this) -- Steven _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/YX2NNZTDGQ6LJ74VJJVVXZVH6HVRUX5W/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
