Quoting Gregor Lingl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

> [x for x in range(2,100) if not [y for y in range(2,x) if x%y==0]]

Heh.  That's quite neat.

I can only offer one suggestion --- if you replace range with xrange, you get a
small speed improvement.

eg: On my system, it took 415 seconds to generate a list of primes < 50,000
using range, but only 386 seconds if I use the same code, but with xrange 
instead.
